The WCBID is working with a consultant to quantify the amount of GHG emissions the district is currently producing. Once a baseline is established, the ideas generated by the group can be looked at more analytically to determine the percentage reduction various ideas will impact the district. But you can still take effective action today, on your own, or in partnership with WCBID or the City of Los Angeles.
- Negotiate a district-wide discount on energy efficient materials and equipment. These materials would include lighting, window film, LEDS, HVAC systems, PV and wind systems.
- Negotiate a district-wide efficiency rebates/financing with LADWP, Gas Co. and CRA
- Work with the City of Los Angeles to identify, execute, and fund innovative demonstration projects to determine feasibility and effectiveness in reducing CO2 release, such as on-site wind power generation, geothermal applications, solar thermal, shared utilities and optimized diversity, HVAC upgrade and downsizing strategies, and electrical upgrade and downsizing strategies.
- Leverage energy- and environment-related City programs and services, such as recycling, transit, and water supply.
