To assist the City in <br />better understanding its overall emissions <br />from the vehicle fleet, ICLEI created an <br />estimate of the emissions from the <br />consumption of the unaccounted fuel. <br />ICLEI assumed that the remaining fuel <br />was consumed in the same proportion of <br />fuel types as the reported 138,997 gallons <br />of fiteL2° Using this proportion, ICLEI <br />estimates that 196 metric tons of COZe <br />would have been released by the <br />remaining fuel consumption, bringing the <br />vehicle fleet emissions total to 1,537 <br />metric tons COze. <br />Figure 5 -Government Vehicle GHG Emissions <br />City Manager's <br />Office 0.1% <br />City Berk Office <br />0.1 <br />Vehicle Fleet GHG 6nISSIOnS by Department <br />(2005-Reported Fuel Consumption Only) <br />Police <br />Department <br />45.6% <br />Department <br />1.7% <br />Public Works <br />Department <br />33.1 <br />--_ Parks <br />------ <br />Pre Department Department <br />15.4% <br />4.0% <br />Public LiQfttin:~ <br />The category of public lighting includes all traffic signals, all sidewalk and other outdoor lighting, mixed <br />lighting/irrigation accounts, and telephone booths in the City. In 2005, public lighting consumed about <br />2.59 million kWh of electricity, which resulted in a release of 581 metric tons of COze emissions into the <br />atmosphere. Table 8 breaks down energy use and emissions from public lighting by type. Over all <br />categories of energy, across all sectors of municipal operation, public lighting generated about 10.8 % of <br />emissions (Figure 5). <br />20 The reported fuel was consumed in a proportion of 82. l% gasoline to 17.9% diesel. Using these percentages, <br />ICLEI divided the remaining fuel into 16,566 gallons of gasoline and 3,614 gallons of diesel. The gasoline <br />consumption was input into the "Auto-Mid Size" category, and diesel consumption was input into the "Heavy <br />Trucks" category.
