The Community Efficiency Leadership Coalition (CELC), part of SPEER’S Local Government Program, is a collaborative network of Texas cities, school districts, and other public entities engaged in partnership and resource exchange to expand the adoption of energy management best practices in the public sector. The Community Efficiency Leadership Coalition supports cities of all sizes and school district energy management best practices. This membership is FREE and sponsored by State Energy Conservation Office (SECO).
The CELC began as a State Energy Conservation Office (SECO)-funded effort dedicated to bringing together local governmental and quasi-governmental organizations to share best practices, lessons learned, and resources to ease the burden of developing and supporting sustainability and environmental initiatives. The participating local governments and SECO acknowledge the value the CELC brings to communicating and collaborating to achieve environmental goals. The CELC will continue exploring new goal areas that allow participants to network, leverage regional resources, and share best practices to collaborate and achieve environmental and sustainability goals.
The purpose of the CELC is to:
Administrative Support
