This webinar will spotlight successful utility energy service contract (UESC) projects that are enabling federal agencies to meet critical statutory and policy goals related to energy resilience and cost efficiency. By leveraging partnerships with serving utilities, federal sites are implementing comprehensive solutions that cut energy waste, improve infrastructure reliability, and reduce operational costs without upfront capital investment. Federal Energy Management Program (FEMP) experts and agency panelists will speak to real-world projects and share best practices, lessons learned, and strategies to replicate success across the federal government.
