The Utility Technology Challenge (UTC) is an annual program designed to address a critical gap in the clean technology commercialization process: helping companies with commercial-ready products find test partners and early adoption customers. In order to maximize the impact of the program, CTSI seeks assistance from partners to help generate awareness of the program.

Ways your organization can support the Clean Technology Testing & Pilot Partner Identification Program:

  1. Send emails notifying your community about the testing program
  2. Include information in newsletters
  3. Post information regarding deadlines and Utility Technology Challenge dates on community calendars
  4. Post program banners on websites
  5. Write articles on program for distribution in print, web, or blogs
  6. Post links on clean technology, utility and municipal social networks including: LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter...

All levels of assistance are welcome, but organizations that are willing to support the program with a sustained effort, will be recognized as Supporting Partners for the Utility Technology Challenge (UTC).

Supporting partners will receive branding in press releases, on the UTC 2011 website pages, and the Clean Technology 2011 site. If you're interested in becoming a Supporting Partner, please contact Laura Benold . Once confirmed, she will need the following: 150x50 pixel web-formatted logo, 50-word description, and URL link.
