Come to this workshop to learn an innovative way to “Save Energy & Money for Your Business & Employees.” Learn how Addison Shoe Factory saved money following an energy audit. The savings were used to create a revolving loan fund for employees to implement energy efficiency measures at home. As an employee benefit, the company provides free home energy audits and employees can borrow no-interest loans from the company-created revolving loan fund to implement recommendations from the audit. Loans are repaid to the fund from the energy savings employees experience as a result of more energy-efficient homes. This program is being piloted at other businesses around the state of Arkansas. Could your business start its own program? Come to this workhopsCfree
