Warrnambool businesses seeking to cut energy costs are encouraged to take part in a free energy audit.
The audits form part of Warrnambool City Council’s Green Business Program.
Businesses can potentially lower operating costs and have a reduced impact on the environment.
Council’s City Sustainability Unit is now looking for businesses interested in taking part in a pilot project within the Green Business Program.
The pilot program will involve a number of case studies which will measure the outcomes of implementing sustainability and energy efficiencies.
Participating businesses will receive a free green business assessment and be provided with feedback on opportunities to “go green” and become more efficient, profitable and sustainable.
A number of Warrnambool businesses have already undergone audits including City Central Motel and Apartments.
Council can also assist businesses obtain long-term loans to introduce energy efficiency measures or water savings.
Businesses wishing to participate in this program or would like more information can contact City Sustainability on 5559 4800.
