Members of Lexington’s City Council heard an annual update on the city’s energy improvement fund Tuesday evening.
The fund was created in 2010 to use the saved money from energy efficiency programs to invest in other projects.
James Bush is the city’s section leader on energy initiatives. He said on individual buildings, they’re able to save around 25 percent of costs on electric lighting and solar projects. But city-wide, the savings aren’t enough to offset the cost of Lexington’s growth.
