You can learn about energy efficient equipment for your business or organization from many different
resources. Focus on Energy offers information, tools, and training for a wide variety of topics.
Many utility Web sites contain excellent information as well as tools. If your utility's site does
not have the information you need, visit additional ones. Trade allies and contractors can also be
of great assistance. Finally, the Web sites of government and non-profit organizations are excellent
resources.
