MO Leadership Ranking ProjectThe purpose of this project is to effectively detail

the larger picture of where Missouri ranks in Renewable Energy, and Energy Efficiency policies, regulations, and program implementation in comparison to the rest of the U.S.

The objective is to showcase the problem areas of Missouri’s RE and EE state policies, and outline the effective policy measures that could be applied to Missouri. The overall goal is to advance Missouri’s position as a leading state in RE and EE.

Past ACEEE Rankings: A Breakdown of Energy Efficiency In Missouri

ACEEE View of Missouri EE Policy - Improvements

ACEEE believes that stricter building energy codes are essential for a higher EE grade. In order to improve ACEEE rankings, Missouri can apply the following: Mandating newer, stricter energy codes on newly

constructed commercial and residential buildings. Increasing Utility company budgets to allow for

purchasing equipment that code officials can use to measure compliance.

Create policies that mandate benchmarks for state building energy use.

Next Steps for MO Leadership Ranking ProjectDelve further into the policies that have been

adopted by other states similar to Missouri that can improve our EE ranking

Continue research into the Renewable Energy Standard rankingsCreate a new graph that accurately portrays

Missouri’s problem areas with regards to RE policies, regulations, and program implementation
