Description
Recreation facilities typically use more energy and produce more greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions than other municipal facilities. The Recreation Energy Conservation (REC) program helps municipally-owned recreation facilities reduce energy use and GHG emissions by providing financial incentives to help identify energy-saving opportunities and implement energy-saving projects.

  • Through REC, municipalities can receive incentives for scoping audits and engineering studies that support investment decisions in addition to incentives for implementing energy efficient retrofits in their facilities.
