Going Green Has Never Been Easier with Energy Upgrade California

Many small business owners want to go green and save energy – but let’s face it – they’re strapped for time and juggling many priorities. As a result, the nation’s small businesses spend more than $60 billion per year on energy costs, a hefty amount that cuts into any bottom line. But what if it were easy for small businesses to get up to speed on energy savings and get a plan specifically tailored for them?

Californians have a resource through Energy Upgrade California, a state initiative dedicated to helping Californians take action to save energy. Their MyEnergyUpgrade tool provides a one-stop shop for small businesses looking for ways to reduce their energy costs.

The MyEnergyUpgrade tool creates a personalized action plan that outlines ways to save money, identifies waste and even finds energy-efficient equipment and financing options. Business owners can access the tool by visiting Energy Upgrade California’s small business page EnergyUpgradeCA.org/SmallBiz, registering and taking the assessment to receive their tailored energy action plan. The plan includes actionable key steps, such as:

·       Signing up for “peak day” energy pricing

·       Updating lighting to energy-efficient bulbs

·       Using commercial ENERGY STAR® appliances

·       Scheduling a maintenance checkup for heating and cooling systems

Best of all – businesses that sign up to use the MyEnergyUpgrade tool are entered in a monthly sweepstakes for a chance to win an Easy Energy Audit worth up to $2,000!

As Mitch Moore, marketing and outreach manager for Energy Upgrade California, says: “Saving time and money is top of mind for every busy business owner. By using our tool, business owners can see how small changes add up over time. These changes translate to money saved, which means more can go toward your bottom line and your future business growth.”
