Bucking bleak hiring statistics that point to a stalling national recovery, many businesses in the energy efficiency sector are expanding their payrolls as local governments roll out new energy benchmarking and disclosure regulations for commercial buildings.
Those rules, many of which take effect this year, will allow consumers to access comparative energy performance information for tens of thousands of buildings in major cities and states. As a result, the appetite for energy efficiency solutions among commercial building owners and managers is growing swiftly, according to small business leaders.
This is a blog supporting discussion surrounding the EDIN (Energy Development in Island Nations) USVI (United States Virgin Islands) EEWG (Energy Efficiency Working Group). We welcome Virgin Island residents, businesses, government officials, utilities, and relevant consultants and commerical interests to participate. We are in the process of introducing the "VIenergize" campaign; energizing the Virgin Islands' pursuit of reduced fossil fuel consumption.
