Energy Coaching (formerly “Ask the Expert”) is a Green Needham project helping Needham homeowners who are pursuing projects to save energy, save money, live more sustainably and adopt clean energy technologies.
We’re helping people with questions like these:
- Are you thinking of an energy efficiency project for your home (solar, HVAC, Insulation, etc.), but you want to know whether your home is a good candidate or how much it is likely to cost and/or save?
- Are you thinking of buying an Electric Vehicle (EV) but have questions about the EV technology, charging issues or carbon emission reduction?
- Do you have questions about regular bikes or electric bikes? Wondering how to fit groceries or other loads? Curious about transporting your children on a bike?
Green Needham’s volunteer energy coaches provide expert advice to Needham residents that is free from commercial bias. We meet with people in their homes or over the phone to help answer their questions. Our advice is provided on a “best efforts” basis. If homeowners need help beyond what we can provide, we let them know and do our best to refer them to other resources.
