OSWEGO — The State University of New York (SUNY) Oswego and the New York Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) are teaming on energy audits for local businesses.
The free audits are available through the Green Jobs/Green NY Act, according to SUNY Oswego. NYSERDA can conduct the audits for small businesses and nonprofits so they can make decisions on steps to increase energy efficiency.
The college’s Office of Business and Community Relations can help guide businesses through the application process for the audits, the school said. The audit reports include recommendations, costs, and expected savings.
NYSERDA can also help businesses with funding for efficiency projects by partnering with lenders to offer low-cost loans, according to SUNY Oswego.
For more information about the NYSERDA audits, call the university’s Small Business Development Center at 312-3492.
