The California Statewide Partnership Program is designed to help community colleges implement energy efficiency programs…

… that may decrease their energy costs. The partnership between the utilities and campuses improve energy-efficient operations and maintenance practices by offering incentives for equipment improvements, training and providing tools to reduce energy consumption and peak demand.

Staples Energy conducts targeted energy audits that focus on specific end-use systems and identifies strategies and technologies that offer immediate energy savings for the campus. Depending on the results of the audit, Staples Energy installs interior and exterior lighting retrofits, chiller replacements, variable-speed drive motors, pumps, reflective window film, and other measures.
