The Office of Sustainability's Energy Office promotes municipal energy conservation and efficiency. As part of its work, the Energy Office:

• Manages programs like demand response and load management, and building monitoring.
• Leads projects, such as energy performance contracting and the Greenworks Sustainability Fund.
• Oversees the operations of utility bill management and energy purchasing.
• Assists municipal buildings with compliance to ordinances involving building performance, facility benchmarking, and energy efficiency and environmental design standards.

The Energy Office prioritizes cost-effective, reliable, clean energy and conventional energy systems for city government. To improve energy conservation and efficiency, the office provides City departments with education, technical expertise, systems change, and analysis of energy used.

These efforts reduce the City government’s environmental impact. The Municipal Energy Dashboard tracks progress toward climate goals for General Fund buildings within the City.
