Eden Prairie's energy usage includes the amount of electricity and natural gas (measured in MMBtus) consumed from each sector — commercial/industrial, residential and City operations.

The City's energy use has remained consistent over the last several years. Residential and commercial/industrial data for the year 2014 is not available. Starting in 2020, energy usage for all City operations was able to be tracked. Prior to 2020 only major facilities' energy usage were able to be tracked. 

Reducing energy consumption is an important step to achieving broad sustainability goals that protect and preserve the natural environment while also reducing operating costs.

The Regional Indicators Initiative (RII) measures and tracks residential and commercial/industrial data for 22 cities in the Twin Cities metro. Visit regionalindicatorsmn.com/energy-chart to learn more about the Regional Indicators Initiative and explore the data.
