According to the Environmental Protection Agency, the nation’s small businesses spend more than $60 billion a year on energy. However, keeping your business cool during the summer months does not have to result in increasing your energy expenses.

Small businesses that invest in energy efficiency can cut utility costs 10 to 30 percent without sacrificing service, quality, style or comfort, all while making significant contributions to a cleaner environment.
