Every now and then, I do random web searches to see what emerges. That’s how I found the California Center for Sustainable Energy located in San Diego, California (www.sdenergy.org). Talk about resources, geez! This organization is all things energy for San Diego, but a lot of their information can be applied anywhere.
The center has articles, research, forums, and events. They have reports on legislation, too. They even present the San Diego Excellence in Energy (SANDEE) award.
According to their website, the SANDEE is awarded to “outstanding projects and activities that have achieved significant energy savings and/or contributions toward the goals of the San Diego Regional Energy Strategy 2030 through the implementation of energy efficiency, energy conservation, renewable energy measures and CO2 reduction in San Diego County.”
There are many different categories for individuals as well as small and large businesses, and yes even an award for municipalities. Nominations for a SANDEE award are due February 2, 2009, so if you know someone who might be eligible, you better hurry. For more information, “Click Here.“
