Vermont’s network of town energy committees continues to grow, reflecting a powerful grassroots response to the pressing need to cut energy costs, foster renewable energy generation and lessen the state’s contribution to global warming. Last year there were 50 of these primarily volunteer groups across the state. Now there are over 90. 

Read more about the important projects these groups are undertaking - and the bold action they are helping to inspire - here.

On December 5, 2009, over 250 community energy leaders gathered at Lake Morey Resort in Fairlee for a daylong summit to learn and share successful energy-saving, renewable generating strategies.
