Southside and Southwest Virginia farmers interested in energy efficiency improvements are invited to apply to the Agricultural Energy Efficiency Initiative (AEEI).  At least 60 farmers in the Tobacco Region who are accepted into the AEEI will be allocated a $5,000 energy account that will provide 1)access to and funding for energy audits and renewable feasibility studies and 2) a cost-share program for retrofit and/or renewable systems.  In addition, participants will have opportunities to participate in educational programs on energy efficiency practices and technologies.  Contact Dr. Martha Walker, Community Viability Specialist at walker53@vt.edu or 434.766.6761 or John Ignosh jignosh@vt.edu to discuss your specific needs and complete the program application.
