Establishing
GHG Emissions Context for Your Organization
Tech-More
has been working with clients from the
commercial and institutional sector in the role
of facilitator, program planner and management
consultant since 1996. In this time, its
corporate philosophy has always been committed
to help the client identify the best and highest
outcomes for their programs, while keeping the
perspective of sustainability clearly in view
and helping them to understand the necessary
changes that must occur to achieve the outcomes
they desire. This is a challenging task for any
consultant, as the client group often has
conflicting outcomes and limited resources. The
solution with respect to the energy component,
and consequently, the Greenhouse Gas emissions
component, of this puzzle is for the consultant
professionals to provide guidance for planning,
analysis of opportunities and project
management. The client will need a high level of
confidence to undertake the changes required,
the client will need to have a high level of
confidence in the consultants they work with,
and this confidence will be based on the
consultants past successes. Tech-More is proud
of its past successes and is pleased to offer
them.

Experience
must be evident in the consultant’s past so that it
can guide and motivate the clients to establish
corporate Greenhouse Gas emission reduction action
plans. The consultant must have demonstrated leadership
skills to ensure executive buy-in and full staff support
for their new projects. Feedback from clients is that
they are struggling with the implications of the
Greenhouse Gas Target Reduction Act (GGRTA) in the
public sector and with Greenhouse Gas emissions in the
private sector. They are feeling pressure from the
requirements of the GGRTA process and don’t know where
to begin because they perceive (quite correctly) that
they cannot fully assess or recognize the risks inherent
with-in the new GHG reductions targets.

Since
October 2000 Tech-More has been the Primary Program
Consultant to the Green Buildings BC Program and in that
capacity has developed the marketing strategy that has
lead to market transformation in the Health and
Education sectors in British Columbia with respect to

infrastructure, reduce GHG emissions and waste
generation. Tech-More has over 100 years of combined
team experience in real estate operations
administration, energy management, energy audits,
project management, program planning, executive level
consulting and application engineering. Tech-More is
committed to helping all client’s adopt new business
strategies and system based tools that support
environmental sustainability and GHG reductions.
Tech-More’s approach
is to bring the focus and clarity of experienced experts
to GHG emissions planning process. By quickly
identifying opportunities and professionally presenting
realistic options, Tech-More’s capabilities will
greatly accelerate the pace by which GHG emissions
projects are implemented in BC. Tech-More will also be
able to provide the clients with on-going services for
tracking, project implementation, reporting and
monitoring GHG projects.

One
of the key measures of success of Tech-More’s
participation in the Green Building BC Retrofit Program
was in influencing the growth in energy self-financed
project activity. From January, 2001 to present $130
million has been spent in projects that would not have
occurred without the services and guidance Tech-More
provided to the Green Buildings Program.
