Kansas’s Path to an Energy-Efficient Future
Summary
The fact sheet outlines the economic and environmental benefits of energy efficiency in Kansas, highlighting its role in meeting the EPA's Clean Power Plan and reducing public health risks from air pollution.
Key insights
- Implementing popular energy efficiency policies could enable Kansas to achieve 54% of its carbon pollution reduction goal under the EPA's Clean Power Plan.
- By 2030, a combination of 1% annual energy savings, national model building codes, and 100 MWs of new combined heat and power could prevent 7 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions and save over 7 million MWh of electricity.
- Energy efficiency policies are projected to save Kansas residents $1 billion by 2030 and reduce emissions of nitrogen oxide by 58,000 tons and sulfur dioxide by 83,000 tons by the same year.
