State of Colorado Selects EnergyCAP for Statewide Utility Tracking Tool

    STATE COLLEGE, Pa., Aug. 18 /EMWNews/ -- The State of Colorado

through the Governor's Energy Office (GEO) has selected Good Steward

Software's EnergyCAP utility tracking tool to manage and report energy and

water use.



    



    Through an Executive Order of Governor Bill Ritter, Jr., the State's

"lead by example" program seeks to reduce energy consumption by 20 percent

and water consumption by 10 percent in State buildings by 2012, against

baseline of state fiscal year 2005-06.



    "The first step to effectively manage and reduce energy and water use

is to ensure that utility data is consistently reported, analyzed, tracked,

and base-lined," notes Angie Fyfe, Greening Government Program Manager at

the GEO. "The EnergyCAP tool will allow us to do that on a statewide basis

for the first time."



    Under Governor Ritter's plan, all state departments, agencies and

offices will report electric, heating fuel, and water consumption through

the EnergyCAP software. Higher Education, because of their unique

environment, will have individual databases.



    To support the Governor's energy and water efficiency goals on a local

level, Good Steward now provides preferred pricing to Colorado local

governments, schools, and political subdivisions through a State price

agreement. The pricing is based on population or student enrollment.
