    Northampton, MA, United States

    1976

    Approximately 50 employees (source: linkedin.com).

    What They Do

    Center for EcoTechnology (CET) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to sustainable materials management, energy efficiency, waste reduction, and climate solutions. Unlike traditional renewable energy companies, CET focuses on helping individuals and businesses save energy and minimize waste rather than developing renewable energy technologies. Their work encompasses three primary areas: energy efficiency improvements, waste reduction and food waste diversion, and broader climate solutions. Over the past two decades, CET has emerged as a leader in the food waste reduction movement, contributing to public policy and implementing pioneering food waste composting programs across the country (source: cetonline.org).

    Projects & Track Record

    CET has a rich history of impactful projects and initiatives. They pioneered the first home compost bin distribution program in the 1990s and were among the first to offer home energy audits in the 1970s. In the 1980s, CET helped administer some of the earliest energy financing programs. More recently, they have launched initiatives such as Inclusive Utility Investments and Carbon-Based Incentives, along with comprehensive decarbonization services. Notable projects include efforts in Pittsfield, Florence, and Springfield, MA, aimed at expanding compost use to mitigate climate change (source: cetonline.org).

    Recent Developments

    In the past few years, CET has continued to expand its geographic footprint beyond Massachusetts, reaching into other parts of the Northeast and nationally. They have introduced new initiatives such as the Community Climate Fund, which allows colleges, universities, and businesses to invest in local carbon reduction projects. Their ongoing commitment to sustainability and community engagement is evident in their recent projects and collaborations (source: cetonline.org).

    Working There

    While specific employment details at CET are limited, the organization operates with office hours from Monday to Friday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. They emphasize creating a model work environment where diverse staff can grow and thrive, as outlined in their strategic plan. CET seeks professionals with technical backgrounds, particularly in energy efficiency and sustainability consulting, making it an appealing workplace for those interested in environmental solutions (source: cetonline.org).
