Purpose: It is in the best interests of the citizens of the state of Minnesota to establish and fund programs to encourage the conservation of energy resources, especially natural gas resources. There is a need for all energy consumers to work to conserve valuable energy resources used in Minnesota.
The Minnesota Blue Flame recognizes the importance of its role as an association of natural gas utilities and gas industry associates, and as a part of the greater Minnesota community to encourage such conservation.
This committee is established to provide a forum for committee members with common responsibility and focus to create strategies to help utilities meet Minnesota’s Conservation Improvement Program (CIP) goals and assist consumers to conserve natural gas.
