Port Chester Community Energy Workshop

What if we could heat our buildings using heat we’re already wasting? How can new energy technology save us money in the long run? How should clean energy be part of the comprehensive plan for Port Chester? How can the community plan for a more sustainable future in the Village?
Sustainable Westchester and the Village of Port Chester invite you to join us for a hands-on interactive workshop to explore how community-scale energy solutions could make heating and cooling cheaper and cleaner. Food and drink will be provided!

  • Learn about a neighborhood approach to using the heat we already have to make heating & cooling accessible and affordable across Port Chester
  • Map where we have excess heat and how we could use it
  • Share what you’d want to see happen in your community

Your input is needed. Please join us to help shape Port Chester’s clean energy future.

This event is made possible through a grant from the New York Community Trust.
