Energy Saving Workshops

With Earth Day approaching, MLGW and TVA are getting an early start on the celebration by teaming with the Memphis Library to bring a series of energy conservation workshops to Shelby County on April 20.

The initiative begins with a press conference and kick-off celebration at the Benjamin L. Hooks Central Library at 11 a.m. Mayor A.C. Wharton, MLGW President and CEO Jerry Collins Jr., and TVA’s General Manager of Customer Service for West Tennessee, Laura Campbell, will all be in attendance.

Energy Smart Workshops are part of a partnership initiative between MLGW and TVA to help MLGW customers conserve energy and save money. Individuals who sign up for the 90-minute workshops will receive a free energy kit worth $50. The workshops have a limited number of spaces and participation is on a first-come, first-served basis.

Workshops will also take place at the Bartlett Branch Library, East Shelby Library, and Whitehaven Library. Interested applicants for the Central Library Branch should contact Cynthia White, Staff Development Department, at 415-2722 Monday through Thursday beginning at 9:00 a.m.

Registration is already underway and spaces are filling quickly. MLGW customers can get a free spot in “Get Energy Smart at Your Library” by contacting the local library branch of their choice.
