Green consultant opens Bellingham office

Coppervale, an international energy efficiency and conservation consultant, recently opened an office in Bellingham.

Coppervale's mission is helping businesses reduce their carbon footprint, lower energy expenses and initiate green branding strategies.

"Our goal is to help businesses take advantage of both the economical and ecological rewards of green business strategies," said Paul Shmotolokha, Coppervale president.

Coppervale has extensive experience in the cable, telecommunications and renewable energy fields. It helps businesses analyze what types of energy they use and how much energy they consume. The analysis helps businesses understand how to use cleaner energy in lesser amounts.

Coppervale has developed a comprehensive system for accomplishing financial and energy goals, while getting stakeholders involved to maximize the investment of time and money.

"Being recognized by your customer as an environmental steward enhances your brand in ways that traditional brand building strategies cannot," Shmotolokha said.

Coppervale has offices in North America, Europe, and Asia.

The company's Bellingham location is at 3767 Alpha Way. For more information, visit coppervale.org.
