On Earth Day (Monday), Huron County introduced the Home Energy Savings Guide. It helps people save energy, water, and money, aligning with the county’s goal of sustainability and cutting energy use.
About 16.5% of Canada’s energy comes from residential use, so it’s crucial for homeowners and renters to use energy wisely. The guide offers easy and affordable solutions for any home.
Derry Wallis, the Climate and Energy Specialist for Huron County, highlights the guide’s value saying it provides tips and strategies that can significantly reduce utility bills.
Improving energy efficiency has added benefits like better air quality, less outside noise, consistent indoor temperatures, and a more resilient home throughout Ontario’s seasons. The guide offers simple ways to cut energy and water use, leading to yearly savings on bills.
