said SEW is a new program for Solano EDC. The program gives businesses the
opportunity to receive a no cost energy audit, and savings program that can
result in reduced lighting and refrigeration bills.
“It’s an easy process which begins with a
comprehensive No Cost energy evaluation." Harrington said. "We
process the rebates and help find the right contractor for the job. In some
cases, the rebates can cover up to 100% of the project cost. In 2014 alone, we
have saved the businesses of Solano County over 2 million kilowatt hours.”
Solano EDC
President, Sandy Person said, “We see this program as part of our efforts to
increase the economic vitality of the businesses of Solano County by helping
businesses save energy and add to their bottom line.”
The Solano EDC is a non-profit public private
partnership delivering professional economic development services and working
with collaborative relationships on a local, regional and state level to ensure
Solano is recognized as a strategic location for industry growth and retention.
Harrington
said the mission of SEW is simple: “We want to help reduce your energy use and
save you money.”
