Solarize New Hartford
Informational Meeting at Town Hall
Monday, November 17
7:00 p.m.

Are you curious about solar energy? Have you wondered whether solar panels would work at your house and what they would cost to install? Do you want to learn more about what they might save you in energy consumption and costs? Attend Monday night's meeting and find out how to lower your electric bill through the Solarize New Hartford program. This initiative provides "no money down" financing for solar panels that could bring you big savings!
The meeting will include a presentation about this 18-week program to sign up residential customers for discounted solar (PV) systems taking advantage of state rebates, low interest financing, and leasing programs. It is a great opportunity for anyone considering solar.
The Town of New Hartford is participating in Solarize Connecticut and has chosen All Green It Solar of Bristol as its installer. Come to Town Hall Monday evening and get all the details about the program and how you can solarize your home.
