City introduces MATH NIGHT energy makeover program Program aims to reduce energy usage in 125 Northside homes

BY ALEX HOLLOWAY [email protected]

Columbus formally introduced its Extreme Energy Makeover program to a handful of homeowners at a meeting at Sims Scott Park Thursday evening. About 20 people showed up to learn about the program, which aims to reduce energy usage by 25 percent in 125 eligible Northside homes. The city and Columbus Light and Water have partnered with energy firm CLEAResult after receiving a $1.6 million grant from the Tennessee Valley Authority. The program seeks to reduce electricity usage by addressing air leaks, poor weather sealing, insulation, heating and cooling upgrades, duct seals and other issues. Ben Polichnowski, a presenter for CLEARe- sult, told the attendees that the program begins with an inspection of the home to determine if it qualifies for the program and, if so, what improvements are possible. The program is completely free to homeowners. Mark Wilson/Dispatch Staff Most of the improvements focus on improving Caleb Billups, 6, reaches for a playing card as Gabrielle Shepherd, 7, hides behind a 10 of spades during “Math temperature control and reducing air leaks, he Night” at Franklin Academy in Columbus on Thursday evening.
