The Simsbury Sustainability Committee, in collaboration with New England Smart Energy, has launched a campaign to spread community awareness of energy efficiency programs available to support homes and businesses.

The Committee encourages you to consider scheduling a home energy assessment and service to help reduce your energy consumption, save money, and improve the health, safety, and comfort of your home. Income-eligible residents can receive a home energy assessment at no cost, and all other
residents may access the same service for a co-pay of just $40.
