Southampton - LI Green is pleased to announce that since January 2009 over 500 Long Island families have received LI Green Free Home Energy Audit services. The not-for-profit organization, which is based at Stony Brook University and affiliated with the Advanced Energy Research Center, has ramped up this program and is ready to dramatically increase the number of homes to be served in the next 12 months.

The LI Green Free Home Energy Audit program provides a no cost preliminary residential energy screening to any Long Island homeowner. The trained engineers and technicians conduct a one on one meeting with families to determine what energy challenges exist in their home and the best ways to solve them. The outcome of the meeting is an individualized "Home Energy Action Plan" along with the technical assistance needed to deliver it.

Making homes more energy efficient is the single largest largest contribution that families can make to reducing global warming. At the same time they will save significantly on energy costs while their homes also become warmer and more healthy to live in.
