West Virginia cities, residents tap into energy efficient resources
A new report by Fellow Evan Hansen's company, Downstream Strategies, was featured in a recent article in West Virginia's The State Journal.
Morgantown is leading the charge in saving energy and creating clean initiatives, but a recent study found there are plenty of untapped resources in the city and across West Virginia.
The study, released June 29 by Morgantown-based environmental consulting firm Downstream Strategies, detailed major sources of greenhouse gas emissions in the city, as well as what business owners and residents can do to cut down on both emissions and energy costs.
“We found in Morgantown that there are large opportunities for homeowners and business owners to take matters into their own hands, and to become more energy efficient and install solar systems,” said Evan Hansen, president of Downstream Strategies and a researcher behind the study. “These are opportunities that generally will pay for themselves in a short period of time and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.”
