Judson ISD recognizes the fact that effective, strategic energy management requires a deliberate and measured approach to both resource conservation and energy reduction. By concentrating on specific Energy Conservation Measures, as well as affecting individual behavior through energy education and awareness, the district believes that it is well-positioned to meet the future energy challenges of our community, our schools and the families we serve.

The goal of the Energy Management Department is to help set the district on a clear path towards significant energy reduction and resource conservation that will have a positive impact on the students, educators, staff and taxpayers of the Judson Independent School District.

Our philosophy is simple; nothing we do under the banner of energy reduction will negatively impact the Indoor Environmental Quality for our students, educators, and staff.

We also participate in demand response with CPS and in the past 7 years we have brought back to our district $2,835,711.30 on exceeding our goals for reduction.
