SUMMARY:Save Money by Becoming More Energy Efficient!
DESCRIPTION:Becoming energy efficient\, or using less energy for the same services\, is one of the easiest and most cost-effective ways to reduce energy use. By reducing energy use\, consumers save money and reduce carbon emissions\, making it one of many climate change  solutions.   \nIn October\, the Environmental Defenders of McHenry County are hosting two free in-person informational sessions on tax credits and rebates available to residents for improving the energy efficiency of  their homes and switching their appliances and cars to electricity. The sessions will be held from 6 to 7 pm each night. Marina Minic from the Citizen Utility Board will lead the session. Sessions will be held on: \n6-7 pm\, Thursday\, October 26\, Harvard Diggins Library\, 900 E McKinley St\, Harvard\n6-7 pm\, Thursday\, November 9\, Woodstock Public Library\, 414 W Judd St\, Woodstock\n6-7 pm\, Monday\, November 27\, McHenry Township\, 3703 N Richmond Rd\, Johnsburg \nBetween the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA)\, federal legislation passed in 2022\, and the Climate and Equitable Jobs Act (CEJA)\, a state act passed in 2021\, several tax credits and rebates are available for energy efficiency and electrification for residents in our county. Low and Medium Income (LMI) residents can often receive higher incentives. This includes tax credits for weatherization\, renewable energy\, battery systems\, electric vehicles\, and rebates for electric appliances.  \nTo learn more\, visit the Defenders resources page at https://tinyurl.com/4energysavings. To stay updated on future in-person and virtual informational sessions\, sign up at https://tinyurl.com/signup4energysavings \nThe Environmental Defenders of McHenry County is the recipient of a grant from McHenry County’s Community Development Block Grant and HOME Investment Partnerships Program to inform and educate McHenry County residents about the various incentives and rebates they can utilize to improve their energy efficiency and transition to cleaner forms of energy.
