We’ll showcase your story and video to 300,000-plus British Columbians
We’ve been celebrating B.C. companies as Clean Energy Champions for several years, and now we’re taking these stories to the next level. We’re expanding nominations to work being done by Alliance members.
It’s a great way for you to showcase how a business you work with stands out with its solutions to energy efficiency, decarbonization, and energy management in B.C. Each month, we feature a story in our popular Connected newsletter that goes out to more than 300,000 BC Hydro residential customers. We also bring a crew out with BC Hydro spokespersons Dave and Jaclyn to create a profile video we post in our various social media channels.
What does that look like? Here are a few examples of Clean Energy Champions we’ve featured over the past few years:
- UVic’s decarbonization rides on our clean energy
- New and retrofitted buildings at BCIT are all a part of a living lab
- All-electric beauty: North Van’s Maplewood Fire & Rescue Centre
- Electric wood chipper and conveyors trim Arrow's carbon footprint
- Landscaper trims gas use by betting on electric tools
- Clean power helps Windset Farms expand and innovate
