We have some great plans! We are working on an upcoming energy fair for our residents to learn more about options. We are also working with State and Federal groups to get some funding for assessments of our public buildings and perhaps implantation of new energy initiatives depending on what we learn in our assessment period.
Meantime, here is some free info we can pass on to Homeowners and Renters – Save with Efficiency Vermont and help Vermont meet its energy goals Free Energy Savings Kits ($47 value) – For a limited time, Vermonters can get a free kit of products like LEDs and water-saving devices and start saving money on energy bills. https://www.efficiencyvermont.com/rebates/list/energy-savings-kits
Free Virtual Home Energy Visit – available to all people living in Vermont, whether in a home or
apartment. The service mimics an ‘audit’ (but it is NOT an audit) in that we are taking 23 years of
experience working in Vermont homes and offering strategic advice, direction and resources to
homeowners and apartment renters to understand and reduce their energy use. This is the place to start for anyone wanting to understand energy use and create a strategy to reduce it. https://www.efficiencyvermont.com/services/energy-assessments/home-energy-assessments
