Wilton Go Green is a proud partner of Neighbor to Neighbor. Our goal is to get 10 percent of the Wilton residences to reduce energy consumption by 20 percent over the next three years. That is about 600 households!

We have a way to go and a lot to learn about. So stay tuned for more information and look for the Energy Corps Volunteers at Green Drinks and other events.

About the Connecticut Neighbor to Neighbor Energy Challenge:

The Connecticut Neighbor to Neighbor Energy Challenge is a community energy savings program made possible by a $4.17 million Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant from the U.S. Department of Energy, funded as part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. Over three years, it will engage residents in 14 towns, helping them reduce their energy use by 20 percent. The program is administered by the Connecticut Clean Energy Fund and draws resources and experience from several partner organizations, including Earth Markets, Clean Water Fund, EMpower Devices and SmartPower. The program’s Clean Energy Community Corps will be administered by the Student Conservation Association, whose members perform two million hours of service each year.
