Premier Tim Houston announced Friday $600,000 in funding for energy upgrades at 21 community buildings in Pictou County, as well as $76,000 to develop a community engagement strategy and implementation plan to support making more buildings net zero in the Town of Antigonish.
The Plymouth Community and Recreation Association will co-ordinate the work among the Pictou County organizations. The work, funded through the government’s Sustainable Communities Challenge Fund, will include insulation, air sealing, LED lighting, hot water conservation, solar panels and heat pumps. It is part of the recreation association’s Pictou County Net-Zero Community Buildings Project.
