This time, its not a scam — real energy company employees will be in town this week visiting store-front businesses.
FortisBC Community Ambassadors will be in Castlegar May 30-31 to talk to local businesses about available rebates and how to save money on energy costs.
The visits are part of the FortisBC Small Business Engagement initiative.
Participants will receive a complimentary energy-saving item — restaurants will receive a high-efficiency pre-rinse spray valve for dish washing and other businesses will receive a smart power strip.
“These represent just two ways small businesses can save energy in easy and novel ways,” said FortisBC.
Businesses can also sign up for a complimentary, in depth energy evaluation from a FortisBC Technical Advisor.
“This is a unique opportunity for owners and managers to get one-on-one advice specific to their businesses from an energy expert. From this meeting, they will have the knowledge and tools to develop a practical plan for long-term energy savings and find out how to access rebate programs that help reduce the cost of choosing high-efficiency equipment,” said FortisBC.
