Energy Efficiency Program

We conduct on-site energy assessments for rural and small community water and wastewater utility systems and makes recommendations to those systems on how to retrofit the equipment and operate the system in the most energy efficient manner. You will receive a report fully tailored to your system, with information on usage, savings, and potential upgrades. We will also provide sources of funding and information on specific loans and grants. If your system is looking to save money, please contact us.
