What We Do

Mission

In the context of a growing population, increasing pollution, and reduced energy security, our local leaders created the Metropolitan Partnership for Energy (MPE) to bring sound energy policy to the San Antonio region.

MPE’s programs are designed to benefit the environment, the economy, and the welfare of our citizens. Its mission is to protect and enhance quality of life by providing energy leadership, expertise and education, and by developing regionally cooperative programs for the wise, efficient and sustainable use of energy.

MPE’s Initiatives include

• Development of Build San Antonio Green (BSAG) – San Antonio’s official Residential Green Building Program
  
  
• Technical Workshops on Energy Efficiency, Conservation, Renewable Energy and Green Building
  
  
• Working with our Partners to create programs for air quality improvement, water conservation, energy efficiency, and renewable energy.
  
  
• Working with the building and development community to implement green building
  
  
• Working with legislators and insurance groups to provide incentives for green building
