2019 Year In Review

2019 was a BIG year for Build It Green. Our network of GreenPoint Raters and GreenPoint Rated homes continued to grow. We also launched a pilot program to train real estate professionals to be GreenPoint Rated advocates for single-family homes. And after successfully managing utility-funded energy efficiency programs throughout Northern California, toward the end of last year we finalized the sale of that business to Franklin Energy, a Wisconsin-based provider of energy efficiency and grid optimization services. The sale positions BIG to provide more robust support in 2020 for GreenPoint Rated while developing new initiatives to help the residential building industry address decarbonization and other increasingly urgent climate-crisis challenges.
