Local Energy Efficiency Performance (LEEP) Program

Project Description

The City contracted with McKinstry Extension, LLC, an Energy Service Company (ESCO) to perform an energy audit of 12 City facilities for the purpose of identifying opportunities to increase the energy efficiency of various systems at those locations. This audit identified energy efficient measures, what the costs would be to implement them, project's payback period, and what options are available to finance these measures. The facilities targeted for the initial energy audit include the Police Station, Fire Station 1, Branigan Library, City Hall, Rio Grande Theatre, Las Cruces Regional Aquatic Center, Meerscheidt Recreational Center and the Munson Senior Center. This project has a Memorandum of Agreement (MOU) executed between the City and the New Mexico Energy, Minerals, and Natural Resources Department as part of a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) grant.
