Businesses in Lichfield and Burntwood are being invited to apply for free energy assessments.
The Green Solutions scheme aims to help companies reduce their consumption and costs by introducing more sustainable options.
Businesses will get a free energy assessment as well as expert advice to help improve energy efficiency and support to implement the proposed measures.
Cllr Philip White, deputy leader and cabinet member for economy and skills at Staffordshire County Council, said:
“We want to help businesses be greener and save money. With energy costs on the rise, it’s crucial to support companies in making positive changes.
“Our goal is to make it easy for businesses to adopt eco-friendly practices and lower their expenses.
“The Green Solutions project is a great opportunity for us to do this and help create a greener and more affordable future for everyone.”
