Discover ways to reduce energy use, costs Friday at NJNG

If the cost of lighting, heating and cooling your house is whittling your budget uncomfortably close to the bone, maybe raising efficiencies can cut the expenses.

New Jersey Natural Gas hosts its annual energy-saving Lighting Fair, Friday, June 19, at its corporate headquarters on Wyckoff Road in Wall Township. The company presents it as a way not only to learn about new technology, but to buy some at deep discounts.

The fair, organized by Connecticut-based TechniArt through the New Jersey Clean Energy Program, features LED bulbs, fixtures, advanced power strips and other products that meet ENERGY-STAR standards set by the U.S. Department of Energy.

Members of NJNG's SAVEGREEN Project can discuss rebates and incentives tied to energy efficient heating and cooling, along with assistance programs and free resources.

The products are displayed in the Save Energy & Money section of the NJNG web page, where there are also free efficiency tips. You can also find updates on the NJNG Facebook page.
