Energy Mentorship Training

An Energy Mentor is a trusted community member who is trained to support other community members who struggle with high electricity bills to complete energy saving measures that reduce energy waste and cut utility costs. Energy Mentor training empowers participants to take charge of energy efficiency initiatives and help implement community energy management plans, leading wider energy actions that will help their community achieve their energy goals.

Community Power developed specific training that provides a foundation for Energy Mentors to carry out this work. In 2017, we delivered the training to four communities including McLeod Lake Indian Band, Lhedli T’enneh First Nation, Kwadacha Nation and Tsay Keh Dene Nation. These workshops were funded by BC Hydro.

Energy Mentors lead a range of energy efficiency projects from education and engagement, to home weatherization, and installing LED lightbulbs and programmable thermostats. To learn more about our mentorship programs, visit our Watt Matters Blog to read stories on energy mentorship and our Youth Energy Mentorship Program.

Uli’s content was solid and she had some great exercises that kept it fun
and helped folks remember the key points. Her presence and way of delivering
the content was also really good. She made folks feel comfortable and kept their attention,
and as a result got plenty of observations and questions from the group.
