Free Workshops Help Homeowners Improve Comfort, Reduce Energy Use

Residents will get DIY tips, live demonstrations and rebate guidance to cut home energy use and improve comfort.

  • Columbia Basin Trust and the Community Energy Association are partnering to deliver free home energy efficiency workshops across 25 Basin communities this fall.
  • Ulli Mueller, CBT senior manager of delivery of benefits, noted that residents are seeking practical information on home comfort and energy efficiency, but "it can be difficult to know where to start."
  • Participants will learn to identify common areas of energy loss and implement low-cost DIY improvements to boost comfort, while also accessing rebates for larger retrofit projects.
  • Each session includes live demonstrations from energy efficiency experts and take-home resources; these free workshops run from Sept. 8 to Oct. 22, with advance registration recommended due to limited space.
  • The initiative extends across 25 Kootenay communities and three First Nations, offering hands-on learning throughout the region; residents can find workshop dates and registration through the Community Energy Association website.
