Energy in Bloomington Indiana 11/16/2010 Mary Sullivan The objective is to reduce city energy consumption in Bloomington Indiana by 6% by November 15, 2015 through installation/retrofitting of high-efficiency direct and indirect lighting systems in city-owned property.

New generation lighting to be considered will include CFL: Compact fluorescent light bulbs, LED: Light-Emitting Diodes, High-Intensity Discharge lighting, outdoor solar products, and motion sensors. Implantation of lighting imitative can mean energy savings and significantly lower operating costs for the city of Bloomington.
