Have a Slice, Get Energy Advice! Sept 23rd

8/30/2026 7:52 pm

Hungry for pizza – or just curious about heat pumps or why your energy bills are so high? Join Sustainable Sudbury, Wayland’s Energy and Climate Committee and Energize Wayland on Wednesday September 23, 2026, for a casual, no-pressure night of free pizza and honest answers about your energy bills and how heat pumps provide AC and lower winter heating costs.

No sales pitch, no jargon – just neighbors and local experts chatting over slices about insulation, heat pumps, solar, and EV chargers, and what makes sense for your home. Meet our volunteer heat pump, solar, and energy bill checkup coaches.

Home heating and cooling account for about half of a typical household's energy use, so even small upgrades can make a real dent in your bills and your carbon footprint. Bring your questions (or just your appetite).

RSVP to tinyurl.com/pizza-party-2026 now to save your slice.
