What is this ?   

                                  "Building Stronger Chambers" means chambers of commerce in California successfully identifying funds and assistance for members from utilities, water agencies and air districts so members can save money on energy and water use and take advantage of financial incentives for transportation alternatives. "Stronger Chambers" attract new chamber members successfully making money as green entrepreneurs.The C of C GreenSheet is about and written by local California chamber of commerce organizations and members.  The aim, with your help if you are willing to forward this to your colleagues, is to distribute the C of C GreenSheet to all CA chambers of commerce sharing these success stories and attracting stronger members for all chamber organizations.  

The GreenSheet is edited by Hank Ryan serving on behalf of Small Business California.  Please email or call  510-459-9683 with stories and suggestions.  If your chamber would like to hear a presentation called "We Can Do This!",  designed to help your members learn how to save money on energy and transportation use, please click here.

    San Diego's ISE Corporation, a member of the San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce - Greening California's Ride One Bus at a Time!     

Although their name is derived from the now defunct space technology venture International Space Enterprises, ISE Corporation's products have significant practical applications here on Earth, enabling their customers to cost-effectively reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. Founded in 1995 by the same entrepreneurs that founded

its namesake, the San Diego-based company produces hybrid-electric drive systems and is now poised to take advantage of the rapid growth in demand for hybrid buses. By connecting the combustion engine in their drive system to the energy storage system and the electric motor instead of the drive shaft, ISE is able to use a smaller combustion engine and thereby provide more fuel-efficient compulsion. ISE also gives its customers complete flexibility by offering gasoline, diesel and hydrogen fuel cell models.

With their sales growing at an average rate

of 141 percent since 2006, ISE is well-equipped to continue as a leading producer of hybriddrive systems.
