Oak Park sustainability commission hires PR firm to help consumers boost energy savings

Getting residents to buy in to energy initiatives is essentially the goal of Aileron’s campaign, but the village has already taken steps to encourage consumers. In February, Oak Park’s Climate Action planning group recommended creating the campaign and also creating grants, worth between $2,000 and $5,000, to help residents implement energy efficiency changes, as well as the creation of a program incentivizing the installation of solar power.
