Resilient & Efficient Buildings Municipal Support Program

WLGCC is proud to be launching a Resilient & Efficient Buildings Municipal Support Program in partnership with Slipstream and a team of state and regional organizations. Through this program, we will create a buildings roadmap for local governments, develop resources and tools in support of local efforts, and offer other technical assistance to help increase the efficiency & resiliency of buildings in communities across the state.

Information, updates, and resources will be posted on this site.

Why a Municipal Support Program?

According to the State of Wisconsin Clean Energy Plan, residential & commercial sectors represent a whopping 37% of the state’s end-use energy costs, and buildings make up a significant 12% of direct greenhouse gas emissions. Buildings are central to decreasing energy consumption so that local governments can meet their clean energy & sustainability goals. The buildings we live and work in can also affect our health, our pocketbooks, and our community resilience. Through this Resilient & Efficient Buildings Municipal Support Program, we aim to support local government efforts to improve the efficiency & resiliency of buildings in their communities.

Who are the other program partners?

We are excited to be partnering with Slipstream, Clean Wisconsin, Midwest Energy Efficiency Alliance, New Buildings Institute, and the Wisconsin Department of Safety and Professional Services to help develop resources and provide technical assistance to local governments.

Local Government Advisors

We have convened a network of local government advisors across the state to provide input and feedback on the creation of the roadmap and resources.
