Green Newton invites residents to explore the future of sustainable energy at a special event on Wednesday, November 13, 7PM-8:30PM at Countryside Elementary School (191 Dedham Street, Newton Highlands). Powering Newton’s Future: Community Networked Geothermal is part of Massachusetts Clean Energy Week and will introduce the community to the transformative potential of community networked geothermal energy systems.
In collaboration with State Renewable Energy, Green Newton will present how this innovative technology can transform the way Newton heats and cools homes and buildings while dramatically reducing carbon emissions. Attendees can learn how geothermal technology works, its potential implementation in Newton, and its benefits as experienced by industry experts and community members.
“We are thrilled to bring this innovative technology to the attention of Newton’s residents,” said Judy Jacobs, Executive Director of Green Newton. “Community networked geothermal energy has the potential to make a significant impact on the way we manage our energy needs, and this event will highlight the possibility of a pilot project in the neighborhood near Countryside School. Understanding this technology is a critical step in empowering our community to be leaders in sustainable energy.”
Residents in the Countryside School neighborhood who are interested in exploring the potential of this technology will be able to sign up for home visit surveys. The event is free and open to he public. Register at greennewton.org/powering-newton.
