Benchmark, Save, Celebrate! Discover the Illinois Building Energy Challenge
Join Illinois Green Alliance for an interactive virtual session to learn more about the recently launched Illinois Building Energy Challenge, an annual recognition and award program celebrating energy use reduction — with a spirit of friendly competition among peers! Learn the ins and outs of the Challenge and how you can participate.
We will go over how the Challenge works, the benefits of participating, the overall timeline, awards and recognition, and key details such as a sneak peek at Knowledgebase. After the 20-minute presentation, there will be 10 minutes for audience Q&A where you can learn about the program’s finer details directly from Illinois Green staff.
