The commission also reviewed the November FY23 financials, discussed the McNeil Station budget, and provided updates on District Energy. The meeting also covered topics such as the Net Zero Energy Calendar, energy assistance programs, website and Facebook highlights, energy services, electric vehicles, and heat pump installations.
This Demand Resource Plan for the City of Burlington Electric Department outlines a 20-year strategy from 2021 to 2040.

The plan aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the thermal energy and transportation sectors, increase beneficial electrification, and achieve substantial energy efficiency savings through proposed investments in these programs. The overarching goal is to deliver cost-effective energy services and reduce the city's carbon footprint.
