The Energy Navigator Project is a CEAC initiative to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in our county by connecting you with one-on-one end-to-end support to reduce your home’s greenhouse gas emissions and utility bills.

So, what is the Energy Navigator Program? 

You can use the Energy Navigator website to track the actions you’ve taken to upgrade your home. You can also find “deep dive” guides on each action.

When you sign up with us we:

Meet with you to discuss your priorities and goals for reducing your home’s greenhouse gas emissions and utility bills through simple changes, weatherization, and switching to efficient electric appliances. 

Work with you to create do-able, bite-sized plans to meet your goals and reduce your home’s greenhouse gas emissions, including rebates, financing options and how to make improvements that fit your budget (even if your budget is $0!).

Check in with you through the process to help navigate barriers and all of the available technical and financial resources.

Who is it for? 

Anyone living in Addison County, VT!

Why? 

Moving quickly to a low-carbon lifestyle is critical to addressing the climate crisis. Houses are complicated, and it can be helpful to have a knowledgeable person to assist with decision making and planning to make decarbonization as easy as possible. 

How much does working with the Navigator cost? 

Consulting with a Navigator is entirely free! You will still need cover the costs of the work you decide to have done on your home, but working with a Navigator can help you find the most cost-effective way to do so. 

How do I sign up?
