This set of template slides summarizes the Champions Network with special attention to how program execution is expected to intersect with agency operations. It also includes speaker notes and is envisioned for either an in-person meeting or a webinar conference call.
This introductory summary welcomes champions to the network and explains the tools available for their role as Champion for their agency.
The strategic plan spells out the program goals, the Champion role, strategic plan, and tactical steps, summarized in the acronym UPGRADE. It serves as the guide for Champions to accomplish energy efficiency retrofits in their agencies using ESPC.
Once champions have a promising retrofit project planned, they can use this short PowerPoint presentation to gain approval from their agency’s leadership for carrying out the improvements as an ESPC project.
When a retrofit project gets the green light to proceed, this checklist supports the Champion in moving the project through the ESPC process and can be customized for the specific process in the jurisdiction.
The Program Design Outline suggests using a prompt in the form of a magnet or certificate to summarize the building UPGRADE plan in seven steps and hang in the Champion’s workspace. It reminds Champions of their daily responsibilities as part of this network to advance local energy savings goals. Network Leads can use this template to design and produce their own prompts for distribution to the Champions.
