The
Clean Energy Coalition's
Rebuild Ypsilanti Program is off to a fast start with a number of commercial building owners signing up for the program's energy audits.
"We have 20 people already interested in energy audits," says Greg Vendena, project manager for the Clean Energy Coalition.
The program offers energy audits for office, retail, restaurant and multifamily residential buildings. Organizers hope to perform 10-20 audits by July and have five actually follow through with the recommendations. The theory is that by improving a building's energy efficiency you'll prolong its usability.
"It's worth the money saved from the operating costs because that is money that could be put toward more important things," Vendena says. "It also reduces pollution and improves occupant safety and health."
For information, contact Vendena at greg@cec-mi.org or (888) 818-0987 ext 702.
