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.
Through bringing state and federal funds into Grand County, Sustainable Grand seeks to advance energy efficiency and resiliency in our community.
Though we only started work in late 2022, Sustainable Grand has accomplished the following:
- Created and managed a program to incentivize East Troublesome Fire rebuilding residents to go high efficiency, $100,000 distributed to date.
- Organized the funding of $80,000 of income qualified energy upgrades through Energy Outreach Colorado and MPEI. (includes homes in Jackson County)
- Won an award to study how the new electric school buses can be used for more than moving students (disaster resilience, powering the grid, etc)
- Organized funding to train and equip a local energy auditor so that residents in our county now how access to energy audits for their homes
- Organized energy audit rebates from the local utilities to significantly bring down the cost for residents and business owners.
- Organized the county and the local cities around a plan on how we can reduce our overall energy usage; in cooperation with Xcel Energy and MPEI
