49635860City of DallasDallasUSANorth AmericaPublic2017Low or zero carbon energy supply generationEnergy SupplyIn 2006, the Mayor of Dallas signed the U.S. Conference of Mayors Climate Protection Agreement which is a commitment by U.S. mayors to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to 7% below 1990 levels by the year 2012. In order to measure the City’s progress with meeting this agreement, the City conducted its first greenhouse gas inventory using a baseline year of 2005. In 2011, the City conducted a second inventory of municipal and community-wide sources using the baseline year of 2010. The 2010 inventory documented that the City of Dallas had achieved its goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 7% below 1990 levels. An update for 2010-2015 is being pursued.The City manages emissions from City operations through its Environmental Management System (EMS). The EMS specifies a systematic way to manage environmental risks and reduce environmental impacts of City operations. As a result, the EMS has helped reduced emissions from city operations. A few examples include:• reduced energy consumption through the City’s purchase of renewable energy• reduced emissions from the City fleet through the purchase of alternative fuel and hybrid vehicles• on-site energy production at City owned wastewater facility and landfill.(32.7801399°, -96.8004511°)(37.09024°, -95.712891°)
