Guide to Energizing Small Communities

View and download the how-to manual and its appendix of documents for use by small communities to develop and deliver programs that reduce energy use community-wide and assist communities to vision renewable energy opportunities.

The Energizing Small Communities: A Guide to Achieving Energy Independence and Economic Resiliency http://erc.sedacog.org/LinkClick.aspx?fileticket=7va5dMMg20w%3d&tabid=339 describes the process. The Guide’s Appendix is a compendium of documents referenced in the Guide that were developed by SEDA-Council of Governments to deliver a community-wide energy independence initiative for the small community of New Berlin, Union County, PA from 2009-2012 as a pilot project supported by the federal Appalachian Regional Commission. This entire Appendix [25MB PDF] can be viewed or downloaded as a .pdf. Click Here http://erc.sedacog.org/Default.aspx?alias=erc.sedacog.org/newberlin for more information about the project.
