OES and our partners are excited to announce Electrify Cincy - an educational effort to help our community understand and take steps towards home electrification. Whether you’re a guru on the topic or couldn’t define it if you tried - we want YOU to consider spending an hour or so per week this spring as an Electrify Cincy Ambassador. 

An Electrify Cincy Ambassador is someone who will learn about home electrification - a key to improving air quality, health, finances, and more - and then share that information with family, friends, and neighbors.

Home electrification, especially of home heating and cooling at scale, is a key way of supporting healthier air, housing, and residents. We want to build buzz on the topic and that’s why we need YOU to help. Check out the activities, qualifications, and benefits below.
