LIPA President & CEO Kevin S. Law, and School Officials Convene for
Long Island’s First “Back to School Energy Summit”

Selden, NY,
October 3, 2008 – Long Island Power Authority (LIPA) President and
CEO Kevin S. Law will meet with Suffolk County school officials Friday
completing LIPA’s first Long Island “Back to School Energy Summit.”
The purpose of the summit is to improve the energy efficiency of Long
Island’s schools and lower their energy costs. Many schools were built
decades ago and without efficiency and conservation factoring heavily
into their designs and operations.
“Introducing and exploring these efficiency concepts will surely benefit
the many thousands of Long Island students who walk the hallways
everyday,” said LIPA President and CEO Kevin S. Law. “By working
together and maximizing our resources, we can reduce energy use, lower
bills and educate our next generation.”
LIPA offers considerable rebates and incentives for commercial projects
including the installation of photovoltaic (solar) energy systems, and
will expand on those efforts next year through the launch of Efficiency
Long Island, a ten-year, one billion dollar investment. |
