City Light’s new, no-cost Strategic Energy Management (SEM) program is launching a second cohort for both commercial and multifamily participants:

  • Commercial SEM: October 2026
  • Multifamily SEM: Spring 2027

Benefits of SEM

  • Participate in dynamic quarterly workshops, offering technical and organizational training, plus the opportunity to share practices and solutions alongside peers.
  • Work with an energy and climate coach for ongoing support throughout the program – up to two years! This includes one site walkthrough to identify energy-saving opportunities and help prioritizing project implementation; assessments and action plan to support integrating energy into business practices; and coordination with the organization’s extended energy team to address specific needs and goals.
  • The program is free for participants. Your investment is your time spent attending workshops and activities – an investment which should yield energy savings as well as valuable organizational benefits.
