Grant helps fund efficient new streetlights
If you or someone in your home relies on
life support equipment powered by
electricity, please let us know. We will
The grant will help cover costs associated with upgrading the obsolete sodium lighting
in the Downtown Concord business districts with new, LED decorative lights. This
will include Monument Square and parts of Main Street, Walden Street and Lexington
Road. In total, CMLP will replace 45 lights to achieve an expected energy reduction of
about 40%.
include you on Concord Light’s confidential
critical health need list.
During a power outage, we will attempt to
prioritize service restoration to those on
the critical health need list. However, you
should always have your own emergency
plan in place, including a minimum of 24
hours of backup power, and a plan to move
to another location if necessary.
For details or to get on the critical health
need list, call Carole Hilton at 978-318-3158
or email [email protected].
The Massachusetts Department of Energy Resources has awarded CMLP an energy
efficiency grant that includes $40,000 for new streetlights.
We’re saving energy one step at a time
CMLP has employed dozens of new energy-saving strategies in recent months, and we
hope these examples inspire you to find ways to save energy, too:
• Installed a timer on the hot/cold water dispenser in our lunchroom to turn it off
after hours. Previously, the dispenser had used as much energy as a 90-watt bulb
during each overnight hour. A timer on the coffee maker makes sure it is off at
night, too.
• Unplugged the refrigeration mechanism on two water fountains.
• Made changes so that 50% of the computers at Concord Light now go into an
energy-saving deep sleep around midnight, after they’ve been backed up and
scanned for viruses.

• Turn off two Engineering division plotters at the end of the
day, rather than leaving them in sleep mode. This saves the
equivalent of the power burned by a 73-watt light bulb left on
for 6,550 hours per year, or 39 weeks straight.
• Placed stickers to remind employees to turn off lights
when leaving a room, and put a sign in the Public
Meeting room to remind occupants to use only
those lights that are necessary.
• Turn off computer monitors at the end of
the day.
•
• Unplugged a mini fridge in the Public
Meeting room when it is not needed for
an event. Two other mini fridges have
been decommissioned.
