AI Summary

  • Creates the Oklahoma State Facilities Energy Conservation Program to reduce energy consumption in all state-owned or operated buildings with HVAC systems or utility services, including higher education institutions and technology center schools

  • Targets cumulative energy savings of at least 20% by 2020 compared to fiscal year 2012 utility expenditures through organizational behavior-based or performance-based conservation efforts

  • Requires the Director of the Office of State Finance to oversee program implementation and select vendors through a request for proposal process, with an initial 12-month fee-free period before vendor payments begin

  • Mandates state agencies to input monthly utility cost data into IPMVP-compliant energy accounting software and submit annual progress reports to the Director within 90 days of each fiscal year end

  • Program must be fully funded through energy cost savings rather than new appropriations, and does not prevent agencies from entering separate performance-based efficiency contracts for capital improvements under existing law
