CONTEST HAS CLOSED.
Charlottesville Home
Energy Makeover Contest

The Local Energy Alliance Program (LEAP) has sponsored the Home Energy Makeover Contest to help residents learn more about enhancing the comfort and value of their homes by reducing their energy use. The contest has closed as of August 20th, and we have over 1000 entrants. The contest selection committee will work with local utilities to evaluate your home's energy usage and follow up with phone interviews with fifty or so entrants. Ten finalists will be selected to receive a free home performance assessment, and our two winners will be chosen from this group. Winners will be announced at the Healthy Green Expo held at the Omni Hotel from 10:00 - 4:00 on September 12th. See you there!
