County of San Mateo Energy Efficiency Climate Action Plan

County of San Mateo Energy Efficiency Climate Action Plan

The Energy Efficiency Climate Action Plan will focus on the reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from unincorporated areas within the county in compliance with state goals and mandates. The EECAP will establish goals, priorities, and actions to achieve countywide GHG emissions reductions and address adaptation to climate change in the unincorporated county; policies and actions will address issues that affect GHG emissions, including water and energy consumption, transportation and land use patterns, agriculture, and waste; and will identify reduction measures, which may include existing, mandatory, incentive, or voluntary programs for county agencies, residents, and businesses. The County may also prepare a new Energy and Climate Change Element to its General Plan.
