Energy Resilience & Climate

The mission of the West Fairlee Energy Committee is to support our town's energy efficiency and renewable energy goals, enhance resilience through local energy resource development, and assist residents in adopting energy-efficient practices and technology for their homes and transportation needs. We can help you navigate federal and state programs that reimburse a large portion of weatherization and efficiency upgrades.
