Sustainable Grand is a non-profit in Grand County Colorado dedicated to energy efficiency, clean energy, electric vehicles and climate resiliency.  We do this through on-going collaboration with community organizations, local utilities, local municipalities, state and federal government agencies.   In comparison to other mountain communities, our county has historically been under-served by utility, state and federal energy programs and as such, we're focused on bringing those dollars into Grand County.   

Your donation will help us extend beyond energy audits into residential energy rebates, EV charging, waste management and more, which we plan to offer across the entire county; Kremmling to Grand Lake to Winter Park.   It will also help us apply for more state and federal funds to be brought into the community.
