Let’s Win It, Cambridge!

Perhaps you saw our ad in this month’s City View? Well, it’s happening! The Georgetown University Energy Prize is going on now, and we are all a part of it. Our city’s collective energy use is being measured and the more we can lower it by the end of 2016, the better shot we have at a 5 million – yes, million – dollars. The money would be used to fund energy initiatives in the city that will benefit everyone. So let’s WIN IT!

Here’s how you can help:

  1. Go to our brand new Ideas Forum. Vote and comment on the posts that are there, and then submit your own ideas for how we can reduce our energy use. Think big! Think small! We want to hear it all.
  2. 2. Sign in to your electricity account with Eversource. They have a brand new, customized portal that shows you all sorts of information about your energy use and steps you can take to reduce wasted energy.
  3. Haven’t had a Mass Save energy assessment in the last 3 years? Now is the time. It’s a no-cost way to start saving real money on energy in your home. Renters and homeowners alike can take advantage of this amazing program. Schedule your assessment now.
  4. Take action in your home and business. Flicking off the lights, using a fan instead of AC, and turning down your water heater are all things you can do to make a difference. Need ideas? We’ve got ’em!
  5. Tell a friend. Tell your landlord. Tell your boss. Spread the word! Follow us on Twitter @Cambenergy #WINITCambridge and like us on facebook.com/cambridgeenergyalliance.

And THANK YOU! We can’t do it without you.
