Texas
Schools are the foundation of society. In these facilities, students learn values that will accompany them for life. They are also critical community infrastructure that can provide resilience and emergency support for local residents.
HARC has partnered with the State Energy Conservation Office of Texas (SECO Texas) to provide no-cost technical assistance to educational facilities across Texas on onsite generation and energy storage technologies.
Each facility will receive a techno-economic analysis tailored to its site-specific characteristics, including energy demand, geospatial considerations, and institutional goals such as resiliency, cost savings, or emissions reduction. For schools already engaged with project developers, HARC will offer independent third-party reviews of proposals, engineering designs, and project details to support informed decision-making.
Beyond initial analyses, HARC will maintain ongoing engagement with each site, following up biannually to track impacts such as installations, operational performance, and long-term program outcomes.
This project ensures that Texas’ educational facilities have the resources they need to make informed strategic, cost-effective, and sustainable energy decisions.
