Energy waste is a very costly problem for communities everywhere. These costs directly affect everyone by reducing cashflow into the community and thus the ability to make business improvements. As energy is wasted, public works projects and community efforts are negatively affected. Less resources both in finances and in manpower leave projects unfinished and communities in peril.
Informed community members can play an important role in tracking down and stopping energy waste. Your community’s city council takes a role to empower its people by giving them information and processes in which they can participate to save energy. It is around this philosophy that awarenessIDEAS built its Community Employee Awareness Energy Conservation Program.
From creating awareness, developing interest, promoting motivation by demonstrating benefits, moving people to action, to giving recognition when deserved, we can be your partner in energy conservation.
For thirty years, our people have been helping clients design energy awareness and process materials that track and reinforce good energy habits. AwarenessIDEAS programs have been successfully used in communities for many years. We customize ideas and products to fit your needs. Here are some suggestions that are easily transferrable to your organization.
Set a standard for energy usage that everyone can agree upon. One standard awarenessIDEAS recommends is: "All Processes shall conform to the energy expectations and requirements designed into the system and only in the amount of energy usage necessary to do the job. Just enough is enough energy." Get that message across using every avenue of communications open to you.
