Total School Energy Management Program.

This energy management program is intended to give school administrators some ideas about how to get started in managing energy conservation. An Implementation Guide provides options and step-by-step approaches for marshaling resources and organizing to get a program off the ground. A Curriculum Review and Development Guide includes general approaches for identifying energy-related concepts and bringing the topic of energy into the existing curriculum. A Guide for Facilities Management includes technical steps that administrators and staff can take. These are organized according to whether they are low-budget corrective measures or conversions involving capital expenditures; and whether they involve energized systems (mechanical devices), passive systems (building structure), or human systems (operating and maintenance). A complete Transportation Management Guide provides a similar program outline to save energy in transportation systems. An appendix lists a number of Department of Energy publications on energy conservation for school buildings. (Author/MLF)
