Municipal program milestones

In 2012, Ciel Power partnered with Highland Park to launch the "It's In Our Power" campaign, our first municipal energy program and one of the first public private partnerships of its kind in New Jersey. That model has since been replicated in more than a dozen New Jersey municipalities, bringing discounted home energy audits to residents through their local governments, environmental commissions, and green teams.
