The Energy Efficiency and Renewables Program works to facilitate a local economy powered by the efficient use of clean, renewable and secure energy. We do so through education about our community’s opportunities to succeed, promoting our clean energy leaders, and connecting our members to the resources that they need to become successful leaders.
