PROGRAM

George Grayson, Paul Theriault of Evolutionary Home Energy Solutions

George has been in the renewable energy business since 2008. First with Florida Power and Light, Energy Resources, now known as NextEra Energy Resources.

George is now with Energy Efficiency Industry with Evolutionary Home Energy Solutions.

George talked about the importance of making your home energy efficient and the necessity to take the 1st step. which is to schedule a home energy inspection. 

40 % of our energy is used to heat and cool our buildings, 1 degree of heat loss results in a 5% increase in energy cost, faulty thermostats result in a 10-12% increase in energy use, energy efficient light bulbs save $10.00 per year per bulb, min R-38 in ceilings @ least 15 inches of insulation.

Offered a home energy audit to the members @ no charge as a thank you for the opportunity to speak to the Club.
