What is Xcel Energy Partners in Energy?

Xcel Energy Partners in Energy provides communities in Colorado, Minnesota, and Wisconsin services to develop an energy plan and assistance with implementing that plan. Each community has its own unique energy needs and priorities, and Partners in Energy tailors its services to complement each community’s vision.

More and more communities are realizing energy planning plays a critical role in helping them reach their goals. The benefits of wise energy choices are diverse. By working with citizens, businesses, and even their own government facilities, a community can shave dollars off utility bills, promote renewables, drive resource conservation or contribute toward greenhouse gas reduction goals. Partners in Energy helps address the challenge of identifying local priorities and then structures a path that leverages all resources available.

This site helps participating communities learn from and collaborate together to achieve their goals. It provides access to a variety of program-specific resources as well as collaboration forums for communicating with others in your community and beyond.

The Partners in Energy Program (PIE) is an outstanding model in public/private cooperation towards a greater good. By leveraging most promising practices in community engagement and community-based-social marketing we are moving the needle in energy efficiency in Jefferson County.  Because of the 'ready-made' nature of the program (facilitated planning & implementation with the right balance of templated structure and community customization) PIE program is straight-forward enough for decision makers to adopt. Once adopted, there is enough support from Xcel and their contractors to allow a rag-tag group of volunteers to lead the charge locally and claim ownership of the results.... every step of the way.
