Wellesley earns state recognition for clean energy & sustainability efforts

December 8, 2018 by admin Leave a Comment

The Massachusetts Department of Energy Resources (DOER) invited Wellesley green teamers to the state house this past week to receive a Leading by Example Award for the town’s numerous clean energy and sustainability efforts. These include initiatives in food recovery, rooftop solar, LED streetlight retrofit, greenhouse gas emissions reduction, and more.

Wellesley was one of 8 award recipients, which also included state agencies, communities and schools.
