econext is seeking Newfoundland and Labrador businesses that want to better understand their environmental impact and access tailored support with actionable environmental insights that drive growth and efficiency. econext is working with these businesses across the province to quantify environmental impacts by helping them assess greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, analyze energy efficiency and/or audit waste in their operations.
Following these assessments, econext will provide advice and steps tailored to your business directly that can make your operations more efficient, and help improve competitiveness and productivity in the marketplace.
With funding from the Department of Jobs, Growth and Rural Development and the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency, econext is pleased to be covering 75% of the cost of assessments. Business will be responsible for financing remaining costs. It is estimated that the total cost of providing these services is $10,000 on average, depending on the scope and size of the business. This opportunity offers significant cost-savings for businesses.
It is an added benefit (but not a requirement) that participating businesses have ownership of their buildings for this project, as this will allow them to make changes based on the findings to improve environmental impact (i.e., increasing energy efficiency and decreasing GHG emissions).
