One great way to start your sustainability journey is by undertaking an energy audit of your business. An energy audit will help identify energy and water saving opportunities for your business, which will save money and improve your indoor air quality, comfort, and safety. Below are ideas for how to move forward with getting an energy audit for your business:
- Join the 2030 District and receive a discounted energy audit.
- Sign up for a Business Energy Consultation with DTE Energy.
- Hire a private contractor to conduct a detailed energy audit of your facility.
Once you receive the results from your audit, start implementing actions to save money. And don't forget to check out
energy incentives available as you move forward implementation.
