Discussed is the development of an energy management program for New York State's school buildings and related facilities by Educational Facilities Laboratories (EFL). Based upon a prior assessment of the need and potential for an energy conservation program, EFL identifies six recurring concerns regarding the establishment of such programs. The model program presented is designed to deal with these common problems. Among the goals of this energy conservation program are: (1) increased awareness of and participation in energy conservation, (2) establishment of energy use goals for each building, (3) operation of all buildings at or below these use goals, (4) increased energy management skills of building operators, and (5) statewide reduction of school energy consumption by 40%. Separate sections of this report describe the energy plant's goals and elements, administration, strategies, incentives, and costs. (WB)
