They typically have piloted an energy efficiency program and seek to broaden its reach and deepen results.

Our partners today include school districts, non-profits, health systems, utilities and corporations. We work with them to integrate our experience and the Energy Stewards™ platform to help make their work more efficient and effective.

At the start, we help transition an existing program into the Energy Stewards™ platform. We train local project leaders to administer the site. Throughout, we support with our deep experience with energy improvement and organizational change issues.


 

Clear, Rapid Results

Mpower Business ChaMpions

ChaMpion Businesses is a group of like-minded businesses, regardless of size or industry, that understand sustainability needs to be included in their strategic plan to stay competitive.
 
Over one year, the ChaMpion program moves businesses from intention to implementation; reducing their use of energy, water, transportation and waste through completed projects. Ultimately saving money.

During 2009, its inaugural year, the Madison, WI-based Mpower Program worked with 7 local businesses to help them achieve measurable results.

The success is clear:
Collectively, they are implementing over 35 projects, from lighting retrofits to creating employee incentives for alternative commuting. The completed projects will reduce their annual use of gasoline by 800 gallons, water by 28,000 gallons, natural gas by 63,000 therms, and electricity by 2.4 million kWh.

These measures will result in a total reduction of CO2 emissions by at least 6 million pounds every year. Their collective five-year savings is anticipated to exceed $1 million.
