About the Project
Stockbridge at Tanglewood Condominiums became the first local commercial entity to use a loan under the Small Business Energy Savings Support product to improve its operating budget and gain savings. The Association worked closely with the Montgomery County Green Bank and City First Enterprises to secure a $44,000 loan. New LED fixtures on the property are reducing energy consumption by 100,000 kWh per year and saving over $14,000 annually. The contractor worked closely with Pepco to secure substantial incentives that help offset the costs of this project.
