How It Works
We can help you get on the Path to Zero in just a few steps:
Start the Conversation
Tell us about your project and get connected to our energy advisors. Enrolling during the earliest stages of your project will ensure access to the full suite of CORE’s incentives and resources for your energy improvements.
Assess Your Space
We will reach out to you and schedule an energy advising session by phone to evaluate the energy performance of your building. By knowing where you’re starting, we can help you design the most impactful changes.*
Get Expert Advice
Once you’re enrolled and assessed, we’ll be at your side through the process from beginning to end, co-creating a personalized plan that maximizes impact and minimizes confusion. Did we mention this service is free?
Take Action
With your energy plan, custom incentives and contractor list in hand, start making energy improvements to your building. Enjoy your healthier, more comfortable, low-carbon space!
*Energy advising by phone will replace energy assessments until further notice. Learn more about CORE’s commitment to helping you cut carbon emissions safely and effectively during the COVID-19 outbreak.
Getting to Zero, One Step at a Time
Marty Treadway is betting the future is already here when it comes to carbon-free living.
By day, as CORE’s Program Director, he’s a Certified Energy Manager and an evangelist for net-zero buildings, the kind that generate as much energy as they use. By night, as a family man (husband to Trina Ortega and father to two boys), he is co-creating a life in Carbondale that is steering away from fossil fuels and toward fun. To flip the switch, he and Trina recently sold their residence across the highway and purchased an old, leaky cold house in town. Good-bye commute, hello energy project!
In this photo story, we break-down the steps that Marty took to get net zero done and show how you can do it too.
