Reintroducing Our Community Energy Specialist
As we have wrapped up another winter season of home energy assessments for people across our community, we wanted to give a shout-out to our staff member completing all of those assessments, Tristen! Tristen has been our Community Energy Specialist since 2017.

Energy Training Corps
Eco3 is developing an Energy Training Corps. This AmeriCorps program is an entry into the energy efficiency workforce and will equip members with energy industry certifications.
