5 sustainability plans, strategies, and tools. The content of this plan is derived from a series of planning workshops held in the community with a planning team committed to representing local energy priorities and implementing plan strategies. The Partners in Energy planning process consisted of a series of five workshops where the Energy Action Team learned about community energy use to develop goals and strategies to achieve Fridley’s energy vision. Partners in Energy will work with the City of Fridley to coordinate support for implementing the plan and will develop a Memorandum of Understanding that outlines specific support Xcel Energy will provide, including resources diagrammed in Figure 3, to help Fridley deploy its strategies and achieve its goals. Figure 2: Partners in Energy Process for Success Figure 3: Resources from Xcel Energy for Implementation Plan Development Process To develop Fridley’s Energy Action Plan, the City of Fridley recruited a diverse group of business and institution representatives, residents, City staff, Environmental Quality and Energy Commission members, and utility representatives serving Fridley. See the Acknowledgements section at the beginning of this document for a complete list of participants. The Energy Action Team met over the course of five months to review community energy use data, set priorities and goals, and develop strategies to meet those goals. A summary of the workshops can be found in Table 2. Between workshops, Energy Action Team members completed surveys to provide additional input on goals and strategies; and a sub-group met outside of the regular Project Management Communication Assistance and Resources Tracking and Measurement Celebration and Recognition of Successes
