Projects
10 Percent Challenge This flagship project for 2008-09 supports Needham residents in reducing their energy use and carbon footprint by 10%.
Wind Feasibility Study This project will install a tower with instruments at a location near the Needham RTS to measure the wind over a one-year period. The resulting information will be analyzed to determine the business case for installation of a wind turbine that would generate lower-cost clean electricity for the Town.
Residential Heating Replacement An initiative to engage local businesses (HVAC and related) and financial institutions to create a program that would encourage and help Needham residents replace older heating and cooling systems and otherwise improve overall household energy efficiency
Schools Projects, initiatives and groups in the Needham Public Schools
Municipal Municipal projects and initiatives in the Town of Needham
Needham Solar Challenge The Needham Solar Challenge was completed successfully, earning Needham a 2kW solar array to be installed this spring at the new High Rock School and accumulating, through donations to the New England Wind Fund, over $21,000 in matching funds toward alternative energy and education projects.
Transportation Study The Green Needham Collaborative Transportation Study Group is analyzing the transportation needs of Needham residents. The information gathered will be used to determine if a shuttle service could be offered to Needham residents. The shuttle would provide transport for commuters, students and other residents traveling to popular Needham destinations.
