Mamaroneck and Larchmont Launch a Joint Campaign to Reduce Energy Usage, Increase Adoption of Renewable Energy & Provide Savings to Residents and Others

In a collaborative, tri-municipal effort, the Town of Mamaroneck and the Villages of Mamaroneck and Larchmont are launching a joint community Earth Day Challenge & Community Energy Campaign to promote two renewable energy and energy efficiency programs. Residents (renters and homeowners) and eligible organizations and businesses can lower energy costs and earn cash back, reduce their carbon footprint, and reduce the community’s reliance on fossil fuel-based energy.

This Earth Day Challenge & Community Energy Campaign, in partnership with the Larchmont Environmental Committee, the Mamaroneck Village Committee for the Environment, and the Town of Mamaroneck Sustainability Collaborative, promotes two community energy programs through Sustainable Westchester – Community Solar and GridRewards.

Nancy Seligson, Supervisor of the Town of Mamaroneck stated, “Thanks to the municipal environmental committees and Sustainable Westchester, everyone in our community can benefit from this Energy Campaign by saving money through the Community Solar and GridRewards programs."

GridRewards and Community Solar are programs that allow residents to save money and reduce their carbon footprint. Both programs are available to residents - renters and homeowners - and eligible organizations and businesses. The programs are voluntary, have no cost to join or cancel and they include the flexibility to use your current electricity supplier (e.g. ConEd or Westchester Power), all while saving money.

Village of Mamaroneck Mayor, Thomas A. Murphy, said, “The Village of Mamaroneck is committed to clean energy and is pleased to be able to offer residents and small businesses, in partnership with Sustainable Westchester, two cost saving energy programs.  Our community has made great strides in clean energy with EV infrastructure and LED street lighting and we are excited to support the GridRewards and Community Solar programs to further our commitment to the environment.”

“Together with Sustainable Westchester, our three municipalities are coming together to celebrate Earth Day by offering residents a simple way to benefit the environment while saving money,” declared Mayor Lorraine Walsh of the Village of Larchmont.
