Requirement 2. Report project data annually - Project reporting is the foundation of the Climate Wise program and is required of all Climate Wise business partners. (At minimum, partners are required to report recycling volumes and reduced miles traveled even if no new projects were completed.) To complete this requirement, use myClimateWise to report efficiency projects related to energy, water, waste reduction and transportation. View project examples by resource type.

Project reporting is the focus of the reporting workshops. If you have NOT reported projects to Climate Wise in the past, you are strongly encouraged to attend one or both workshops to learn more about what information you need to collect in order to report projects. For more information, including presentations and guidance from previous workshops visit the Climate Wise Reporting page.
