New Green Built Alliance Project and Partnership Offers Free Energy-Efficiency Upgrades for Low-Income Families This Winter
Some low-income families in Buncombe County will begin receiving free energy-efficiency upgrades to their homes this month through a new county-funded and volunteer-powered program intended to help people in need save energy and reduce bills as winter arrives.
Supported by $25,000 in funding from Buncombe County, the Buncombe Energy Savers project will be administered by Green Built Alliance and the volunteer-based organization Energy Savers Network starting in November and continuing throughout 2018.
Green Built Alliance's relationship with Energy Savers Network as its fiscal sponsor and their partnership on this county-funded project both emerged from the work of the Energy Innovation Task Force.
