Bridging Needs with Clean Energy Coalition's New Website
Earlier this month, Clean Energy Coalition unveiled a new website to better highlight the organization's mission, programs and services. Featuring CEC's three divisions - Mobility, Communities, and Structures - the new website guides visitors through the numerous initiatives headed by Clean Energy Coalition while providing assurance that consuming fewer fossil fuels and using more renewable energy is a journey anyone can take.
"We're incredibly excited to officially launch our new website," said CEC executive director Sean Reed. "The new site marks an important point forward in Clean Energy Coalition's development. It's also a great example of our team working together to create something fresh and inspiring."
Along with pages dedicated to each division, Clean Energy Coalition's new website better outlines the numerous services offered by the organization, such as grant writing, climate services, and revolving energy fund establishment. Resources divided by target area can help anyone realize energy savings, while success stories - such as the energy and financial savings realized by the Gilbert Residence - are sure to motivate positive change.
