Local Government Energy Reporting 2020 Updates & Reminder

Under Texas Health and Safety Code §388.005(c), all political subdivisions, state agencies and institutes of higher education in an ozone non-attainment area or an affected county are required to establish a goal to reduce electricity consumption by at least five percent each year. Each political subdivision must submit a report annually to SECO regarding the entity's progress and efforts to meet the five percent annual reduction goal. 2020 reports will not be due until February 1, 2021, and will cover CALENDAR year 2020. The reporting form for 2020 is not yet available. The reporting process is undergoing some modifications.
