Central California Energy Watch: Audits by the Sea

SJVCEO was on the road in May to visit one of our Central California Energy Watch (CCEW) public agency partners, City of Carmel-by-the-Sea. During our visit we were able to meet City staff as well as conduct walk through audits at various city facilities. Our team loved being able to tour facilities ranging from the Harrison Memorial Library to City Hall and learning about the historical background of the city.

Start your Summer with SJVCEO’s Spotify

While it may not technically be summer yet, here it in Valley, it sure does feel like it! After braving the triple digit heat for the last few days, we knew there would be nothing better than sharing our latest Spotify playlist with you all.

Now, we’re using our #spotify Industry Series to talk about the HERS Index and some of our favorite women vocalists! Visit our #BLOGEE and check it out!
