Nominations for Clean Energy Champions open for BC businesses

Nominations for BC Hydro’s Clean Energy Champions are now open.

According to Hydro, a Clean Energy Champion is a business owner, resident, municipality or group that has switched to more clean and renewable energy practices.

The aim is to showcase projects and initiatives that promote clean energy throughout BC, with previous champions including electric tugboats, and Sealand Flight’s electric plane.
