Go Green Nashville! Save Money by Saving Energy!

Chelsea Hamilton from Village Real Estate visited Eastwood's February meeting to tell us about the reinvigoration of the District 6 Energy Fix campaign. This campaign is part of Go Green Nashville, which is a city-wide initiative to reduce Nashville’s energy consumption through home energy retrofits. More than 40% of America’s carbon emissions come from heating, cooling, lighting, and operating buildings. In neighborhoods characterized by unique and historic homes, like Eastwood, that percentage can be even higher. District 6 Energy Fix is a neighborhood-focused effort to reduce home energy use; saving homeowners money though reduced energy costs and through available rebates! Currently, up to $700 in rebates are available to homeowners who perform an energy retrofit, in addition to lowered electric bills, and increased home value!
