Business Energy Working Group
Tuesday, April 17, 2018
Meeting Minutes
Present: Carolyn Jackson, Paul Hussian, David Goldstein (visiting)
Absent: Michelle Horan, Mike Woolsey
1. The group reviewed the check list from the City of Marshall for a business recognition
program. We thought this would be a good be a good program going forward.
a. Questions were raised about how to inform businesses about solar options.
b. We asked whether businesses would feel incented to do this.
2. The issue was raised about the history of solar actions taken by the city. We decided to
ask for some history from past commissioners.
3. Carolyn reviewed some of the ideas from the CERTS conference, including reviewing
the Turn Key program, Xcel’s energyprofiletool.com/xcelenergy internal benchmarking
tool, and the PACE program. David reminded us that the PACE program would not be
appropriate for the schools because they don’t pay taxes.
4. We decided to ask Michelle if she would be the new chair of the business energy work
group and for her to suggest a better time to meet (standing conflicts with Tuesdays)
5. David agreed to become a new member of the working group. Carolyn will make the
appropriate motion at the next EEC meeting.
6. We decided the business energy working group should continue—focusing on the
business recognition, outreach to larger businesses (Paul is following up with the
Galleria), and another tenants event (probably at Centennial Lakes.)
The meeting adjourned at 8:00 p.m.
