History
In 2003, the Albuquerque City Council provided vision and leadership aimed at influencing the manner in which the City of Albuquerque manages and consumes energy in its facilities. The City Council adopted an unprecedented ordinance (FSO-02-70) that reserves capital funds targeted for energy conservation projects.
As a direct result of the ordinance, the powers and duties of the Albuquerque Energy Council (AEC), under the direction of the Energy and sustainability Management Division Manager, were expanded to establish criteria to select projects for funding. By providing a mechanism for community leadership in reduction of energy consumed, it is the City’s intent to serve the public welfare. Therefore, a community-wide effort to conserve energy will be developed and implemented.
The AEC's Mission Statement is "Champions of Albuquerque's quality of life, promoting cost effective, innovative resource management, energy education and community involvement."
Through formal requests for applicants, the City interviewed and selected nine members with varying areas of technical expertise to serve on the AEC. Membership on the committee is voluntary with staggered terms. Although the AEC operates under the direction of the City’s Energy and sustainability Management Division, guidance from the U. S. Department of Energy, Rebuild America, Rebuild New Mexico, and the State of New Mexico’s Energy Conservation and Management Division is considered for planning. Many technical and trade associations are also used as resources.
