Nest Renew is a service that helps people play a part in the fight against climate change from home. By combining existing Nest thermostat programs with new education tools, intelligent automation, nonprofit funding focused on clean energy equity, and renewable generation support, Renew makes it easy to support a clean energy future.
Google has long strived to help move the world closer to a carbon-free future. With Nest Renew, we‘re working closely with our partners to engage people with empowering and impactful tools that help them support the energy transition. Because when we each do a little, it adds up to a lot.
