In most Massachusetts, space heating, appliances, and lighting make up the bulk of our homes energy use. Just as there are many ways to conserve energy at church, there are many effective ways to save energy at home. Whether you live in a house or apartment, a mobile home or a renovated loft, conserving energy will benefit our environment and put money in your pocket!

Massachusetts households spend about $2500/yr on energy home heating. Massachusetts residents have a unique energy consumption profile. Space heating accounts for 59% of home energy use in Massachusetts compared to 42% nationwide.  In contrast, Massachusetts consumers use 35% less electricity per household than the national average due to low air conditioning and leading state wide energy efficiency programs. 

Bottom line, when you conserve energy, you can lower your energy cost and help improve the environment.
