Southwest Energy Efficiency Project

05/26/2026

This AANHPI Heritage Month, SWEEP, in partnership with Nevada Environmental Justice Coalition, One APIA Nevada, Nevada Conservation League, and Indigenous Voices of Nevada, was proud to help create space for a conversation centered on climate, culture, and community. As energy costs continue to rise across Nevada, we know that working families need real solutions that help lower bills while keeping homes safe and comfortable. That’s why we’re committed to connecting communities with energy efficiency opportunities, practical savings tips, and resources that make a difference in everyday life. 💡🌎

From simple changes at home to larger programs that improve energy efficiency, we believe climate conversations should also be about affordability, health, and community empowerment. Thank you to everyone who joined us in building a future where all communities have access to clean, affordable energy solutions. 🤝💚
