- Solar arrays on 6 public schools and real time production tracker on Town website
- Progress since 2010 as a Massachusetts Green Community, including receiving grants totaling $1.6 million to improve the energy efficiency of town operations

This video “premiered” at the event. It is a great description of what CCAs are and why they are important. (Thank you to Brucie Moulton and Josh Katofsky for producing it!)
