Home Energy Efficiency Summit

The Home Energy Efficiency Summit will bring all the players for energy efficiency into one space to be a catalyst for change for Kalamazoo residents. It will share resources and information to not only make healthier, more energy efficient spaces, but also potentially save people money on their utility bills.

The summit will look to educate attendees on what improvements can be made in their homes and how they can take the first step towards change. Guest speakers will present on the topics of home improvements, efficient development, workforce development, solar energy, tax incentives to efficiency, and more! Additional information will be provided during presentation breaks with opportunities to ask questions and learn more from community-based organizations supporting efficiency projects.

This event is free for all and will include light refreshments. Folks may come and go as they please, since we understand finding 6 hours of free time on a Saturday can be a challenge!
