Energy Department hosts Webinar: Business Opportunities in Energy Savings Projects

You’re invited to join the Energy Department at their webinar on Monday, May 20, 3:30pm EST to learn more about business opportunities in the federal government’s implementation of energy savings projects and performance-based contracting for energy savings.

To register for this webinar, please forward your name, company name, and email address to the Office of Small and Disadvantaged Business Utilization at: smallbusiness@hq.doe.gov

President Obama has mandated that the federal government shall enter into a minimum of $2 billion in performance-based contracts in federal building efficiency – by December 31, 2013. In order to meet this deadline, set by a Presidential Memorandum in December 2011, agencies have been asked to evaluate their facilities, identify potential savings, and appropriately leverage both private and public sector funding to invest in comprehensive projects.

This webinar will train agencies and small businesses on how to establish partnerships with their local utilities to help meet this challenge.

Participants are encouraged to visit the FEMP website beforehand at http://www1.eere.energy.gov/femp/financing/espc_enable_esco.html

The Energy Department wants to engage small businesses in this work, and this webinar can provide additional information to small businesses looking to get engaged in subcontracting with ESCOs.
