CONSERVATION GRANTS |
Printable: Conservation Grant Application Form
CONSERVATION
GRANTS – $ 200 per grant*
Members may apply for a one-time per year grant for
the implementation of permanently installed energy conservation
measures. This will be on a 50% cost-share basis, up to $200. Grants
might include but are not limited to the following:
- Clothes line
Clothes lines and drying racks are a great way to save energy, since the clothes dryer is one of the most energy-hungry appliances in your home. Read more. - Corn, pellet, or wood stove
Today you can choose from a new generation of wood-, corn- and pellet-burning appliances that are cleaner burning, more efficient, and powerful enough to heat many average-sized, modern homes. Read more. - Trees
for shading (site plan required)
The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that simply shading a home’s south and west sides with trees can reduce heating and cooling energy consumption by 25%. Read more. - Insulation
Because they efficiently move air, Energy Star ceiling fans keep you comfortable year-round while saving you money on your cooling and heating costs.
How does it work? The water supply line passes through an insulated earth tube. This tube allows movement of air warmed by geothermal heat around the water supply line to keep it from freezing. Ask for more information at the Cooperative.
By using timers on your tractor engine block heaters, you can save up to 85% on energy costs. Read more.
You can save as much as 10% a year on your heating and cooling bills by simply turning your thermostat back 10% to 15% for 8 hours. Read more.
*A maximum of $ 2000 will be
awarded per year in this program category
