Kootenays save over one million kilowatt hours
As a result of the provincially-funded LiveSmart BC Small Business Energy Assessments, more than 50 businesses completed energy retrofits during 2012 to improve their carbon footprint and lower operating costs. Together their improvements have identified over one million kilowatt hours saved!
Our local businesses have taken advantage of the current incentives offered through BC Hydro, FortisBC and the Province of B.C.’s LiveSmart BC Small Business Program. http://www.livesmartbc.ca/incentives/small-business/
Lighting upgrades are one of the easiest and most common changes that can be done to help reduce a business’s impact on the environment. There are also incentives available for upgrades to HVAC systems (heating, ventilation and air conditioning). Improvements in both areas can help reduce overhead costs and save energy.
Please contact Kootenay Region LiveSmart BC Energy Advisor, Marilyn Christensen to have your free provincially-funded LiveSmart BC Small Business assessment today. For more information and program eligibility, call (250) 426-5914 or email [email protected] .
