2005 Pleasanton Plan 2025 DRAFT 10.0 Energy Element <br /> Program 7.3: Promote and encourage photovoltaic demonstration projects in association with public or private <br /> development. <br /> Program 7.4: Study the feasibility of starting or joining a photovoltaic co -op program and explore related financial <br /> considerations. <br /> Program 7.5: For new construction, require roofs that are strong enough and have roof truss spacing to hold <br /> photovoltaic panels, where feasible and cost effective. <br /> Program '.6: For n,w conanucric,n, rcyture roc/Es that ar,_ .;tron.g and have roof trua� .pacing l) 1<<,Id <br /> ph�,t,..,lraic pa,icl.;, .ehcrc fca.; hlc and ec, ;t cff ctive. <br /> Program: 7. Require solar water heating and /or photovoltaic -ready roofs in new construction, i.e., roofs with wiring <br /> installed for a roof mounted photovoltaic system, where feasible. <br /> Program 7.8 Support the production of alternative and renewable fuels and fuelling stations in Pleasanton. <br /> Program 7.98: Consider a photovoltaic joint venture project on private property. <br /> Program 7.109 Work with the City of Livermore and Spectrum Energy to develop a solar cities program or <br /> standardized solar- energy- system installation designs for residences and potentially for businesses. <br /> Program Explore the concept of funding energy efficiency upgrades for residential and commercial buildings as <br /> 7.4410: authorized by AB 811. <br /> Policy 8: Consider other sustainable means of supplying energy in the city. <br /> Program 8.1: Explore the use of alternative energy technologies. <br /> Program 8.2: Continue to support Dublin San Ramon Services District's use of methane from the sewage treatment <br /> plant for heating and mechanical energy. <br /> Program 8.3: Encourage distributed generation which is consistent with the Generator Siting Ordinance. This program <br /> would encourage relatively small electrical- generation facilities that could rely on a variety of energy <br /> sources such as natural gas, wind, and solar compared to larger facilities that rely almost entirely on <br /> diesel fuel. The City specifically targets large businesses to supply their own small electrical- generation <br /> facilities. <br /> 10 Energy Element port 2 1 0-1 3 <br />
