Late last year, the Arlington County Board adopted sweeping updates to the Community Energy Plan, setting ambitious targets for transforming the county’s energy sector.
Some highlights of Arlington’s Community Energy Plan (CEP) include:
Set goal of a carbon-neutral Arlington by 2050
Government operations to achieve 100% renewable electricity by 2025
Community to achieve 100% renewable electricity by 2035
