City Hall Milford, DE .
On Feb. 8, Milford City Council heard a presentation by Tom Coyle of Efficiency Smart, the company that provides energy savings options to businesses and residents in Milford. Coyle provided council with details on how much customers had saved in the city as well as goals that had been met since the city agreed to join the project three years ago.
“Over the past three years, we have achieved 107 percent of our goal in energy savings for the city,” Coyle said. “This has led to a lifetime customer savings of over $2.8 million. Over the past three years, we have provided over 4,000 large business solutions and almost 900 small business solutions as well as over 3,400 residential solutions to help save energy. When we first launched, Milford was one of the first members of DEMEC to sign on. Now, all eight members have joined, and we have dedicated staff, including an account manager as well as an energy consultant.”
