Best practice energy management in the Western Australia business sector
is a major objective of the Sustainable Energy Development Office. Most businesses still consider energy use as a fixed cost, but there are many opportunities to achieve financial savings and increased competitiveness through better energy management. By becoming energy smart, your business will also be helping to reduce the level of greenhouse gas emissions. In energy intensive industries, small increases in energy efficiency can result in large savings in greenhouse gas emissions and improve competitiveness. Small and medium enterprises also have the opportunity to save money as well as help the environment by better energy management. Another involves using renewable energy. All Western Australian businesses can purchase accredited renewable energy through the GreenPower Program. Further information on GreenPower is available here. Funding and Grants The Sustainable Energy Development Office provides funds to some Western Australian businesses to support renewable energy and energy efficiency projects in Western Australia. See the Funding and Grants section for further information. Energy Smart Directory For suppliers of energy efficient and renewable energy products and services, visit the Energy Smart Directory.
