Federal Energy Management

The mission of the Federal Energy Management Program is to facilitate the Federal Government’s implementation of sound, cost-effective energy management and investment practices to enhance the Nation’s energy security and environmental stewardship.

The Federal Water Working Group is an interagency advisory group with a charter to develop strong partnerships, promote new technologies and tools, develop guidance on Federal water related policy, distribute information on best practices, and provide recognition for exemplary performance.

Federal Water Working Group

Increase water use efficiency and reduce water use for Federal Agencies!

Best Management Practice Federal Case Studies

Case Study: Sandia National Laboratory Microelectronics Plant

Large micro-electronics plant – HERO System with 90% recovery rate

Reuse HERO reject water –store in tanks and used as cooling tower make-up

Results: Annual saving over 140 million gallons

Case Study: Fort Carson, Colorado

Results: 100 million gallons of water reused annually

Technical Assistance and Outreach

• Guidance on estimating unmetered industrial water use and landscape irrigation

• Innovative strategies for cooling tower water management
