Bangor explores partnership with three local vendors for energy audit program

Bangor City officials are rolling out an innovative program aimed at simplifying energy audits for local residents. During the recent Business & Economic Development Committee meeting, members discussed a new initiative that will guide homeowners through the energy audit process without the need for them to seek out services independently.

The program is particularly significant given that there are only three vendors within a 25-mile radius of Bangor capable of conducting energy audits and installing insulation. Committee members expressed confidence in their established relationships with these vendors, ensuring a smooth collaboration moving forward.

"This is a great little program," one committee member noted, highlighting the potential benefits for the community. The initiative aims to enhance energy efficiency in homes, ultimately leading to cost savings for residents and a positive environmental impact.

As the program develops, officials are optimistic about its reception and the improvements it could bring to local energy consumption practices. Further updates are expected as the initiative progresses.
