Who are the Green Energy Neighbors?
Green Energy Neighbors (GEN) aims to connect households considering home efficiency and energy improvements (the learners) with community members who have already made these improvements (the mentors). GEN was designed by A2Zero Ambassador volunteers passionate about advancing carbon neutrality. The GEN network is free of charge and open to all interested in reducing their home’s carbon footprint.
