ENERGY MANAGEMENT

The Energy Management Program (EMP) was created by Commissioners Court in early 2004 to reduce the county’s overall energy consumption and cost.

GOAL

The goal of the EMP is to maximize available energy-efficient conservation technologies while utilizing sustainable materials and approaches in design, construction, and operations. The EMP also aims to ensure compliance and on January 17, 2022, Bexar County Commissioners Court approved a 4 stream recycling program to recycle paper, aluminum, and plastic. Along with this, 5 balers are used to recycle cardboard. --Being good stewards of our environment--
