Did we mention they could save more than $8 million while doing so?

The power of partnership

The village of Patchogue is going green. Now other local municipalities who are anxious to show that they care about their people and the environment are taking note of this Long Island role model.

Partnering with Johnson Controls, village officials have developed a clear roadmap to achieving their net zero and renewable energy goals. With multiple energy-efficient upgrades to HVAC, lighting, and temperature control systems, they are well on their way to reaching these sustainability goals.

Not to mention, these upgrades are designed to save Patchogue more than $8 million in the next 25 years – all while improving the quality of life for the community and visitors alike.
