The Middletown Clean Energy Task Force has been working on
many energy supply and conservation measures for the City of Middletown over
the past 8 years. The Task Force has been a leader in lowering the cost of
electricity for municipal buildings; promoting solar power on City and Board of
Education buildings and schools, respectively; advocating for a fuel cell as
part of the plans for the Middletown
High School; and, studying a variety of cutting edge technologies for city
owned streetlights and Palmer Field stadium lighting. The Task Force is also
currently exploring the costs:benefits of municipal ownership of all city-wide
streetlights and pursuing new community outreach initiatives. Middletown
residents interested or with expertise in clean energy, energy conservation
and/or emerging technologies (i.e., LED, induction) and who can assist the
Task Force are asked to contact the City. The Clean Energy Task Force meets the
third Wednesday of each month at 12:30 pm in city hall (lunch meetings).
Meetings last no longer than 1.5 hours. If you have an interest in learning
more about the many projects the Task Force is now working on please call John
Hall, Middletown's Energy Coordinator, at
860.344.3503.

I would be interested if these meetings were held after work day hours.
