Burning gas, oil, and propane to heat & cool our homes and buildings and heat our water generates 23% of Connecticut’s total NOx pollution. That’s roughly eight times more than all of the state's power plants combined.
To help make your home more energy efficient, start with an energy audit - find out how much energy is being wasted and what to do about it. Learn about energy-efficient heat pumps, water heaters, and weatherizing. Then consider solar & battery storage, which will cost less once and energy audit, weatherization, insulation and other energy efficiency measures are taken care of.
