Energy costs rise annually and energy waste is rising along with the costs. School districts, especially larger ones, will spend upwards of $500,000 to a million dollars annually on utility costs. This is a significant amount of dollars allocated to school districts out of the general budget. If every employee helped to conserve energy, thousands of dollars could potentially be saved annually.
