How it works
Partners in Project Green will coordinate a walk-through assessment at one of your facilities in Brampton with other technical experts to help you identify opportunities to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, save energy, implement low impact development (LID), and lower costs.
To participate, you will first need to submit an expression of interest from your organization. PPG will follow up to confirm your interest in the program and provide the commitment letter. Once the commitment letter is signed, a pre-assessment survey will be provided. This helps collect preliminary information about your facility to ensure we can conduct a thorough walk-through.
We’ll coordinate the best time to visit your facility for the walk-through. Depending on the size of your facility, walk-throughs can take anywhere between 2-4 hours on site.
After completion, PPG and our technical advisors will compile our findings and present the participating businesses with a brief summary of opportunities and available funding to put projects into action.
