Acterra's Beneficial Electrification Programming
Acterra’s Beneficial Electrification (BE) program prioritizes and accelerates the adoption of all-electric appliances, buildings, and vehicles that operate on clean energy instead of fossil fuels. BE supports the general public, small businesses, industry, municipalities, counties, regional authorities, the state, utilities and NGOs toward meeting the climate goals of the entire region. Acterra must play a role in advocating for the move away from fossil fuel devices. Acterra develops and shares materials and strategies to encourage the wider adoption of fossil-free devices and technologies in both the commercial and residential sectors. Specifically Acterra facilitates outreach to residents and professionals on the benefits of fossil-free devices in construction and educates residents on the benefits of fossil-free devices in homes.
