Pacific Gas & Electric has 
launched a new feature in their Energy Action Guide tool that allows small/medium businesses to find relevant resources to help maximize energy savings and reduce costs.
The tool allows customers to filter resources by business type, resource type, and theme to guide them to the specific answers they are looking for. If your small/medium business is within SNEW territory, our team can also provide a variety of free services to help your business save energy and money, including access to no-cost building energy audits. Click here to explore the Energy Action Guide tool.
Feeling inspired to reduce your building’s energy use? Then schedule a free energy audit with SNEW and we will connect you with a vetted trade professional and available rebates and funding opportunities!
To schedule a free energy audit, please email SNEW@sierrabusiness.org.
Our workshop on Rural Energy Solutions took place on March 8, and the recording is available now! The webinar was presented by two of Sierra Business Council (SBC)’s climate programs, Sierra Climate Adaptation & Mitigation Partnership (Sierra CAMP) and Sierra Nevada Energy Watch (SNEW).
The webinar explains the process by which energy efficiency upgrades are completed, starting with benchmarking reports and ending with funding opportunities and installations. The presentation also includes additional opportunities public agencies can work on to reduce emissions, such as creating a climate action plan or developing a vulnerability assessment. To learn more about building energy efficiency, watch the webinar recording here and access the slides here.
