Think Green

  • Sacramento Municipal Utility District (SMUD) Greenergy Partner
  • SMUD Community Energy Award Winner
  • SMUD ‘Savings By Design’ Program
  • Our power conservation efforts save more than 4,000,000 kWh electricity per year. For example, our chilled water plant and efficient data center cooling design saves 250,000 kWh of electricity per month.
  • Two chemical-free water treatment systems have eliminated chemical use entirely and reduced our water discharged by 80%.
  • We recycle 100% of the cardboard, steel, copper, and aluminum we use for construction and other activities. In paper and cardboard recycling alone, it is equivalent to 36+ mature trees per year.
  • We recycle 100% of our lead acid batteries, over 700,000 pounds worth, and donate the proceeds to the United States Wolf Refuge.
  • We recycle more than 2,000 pounds of electronic waste per year, from both our own company and as a free service to our valued clients.
