Follow the link below the energized symbol to find out other information about the challenge between the four towns involved.This should be a very interesting event and everybody will save energy and lower their utility bills.Four Iowa communities are ready to show each other — and all Iowans — what they can achieve in energy efficiency. Dike, Fairbank, Hudson and Readlyn have accepted the challenge, and it should be an exciting experiment. An Iowa Policy Project (IPP) report in June 2011 set the stage for this project. “You can almost hear the cheerleaders by the mailbox as you open your bill: ‘We can save energy better than you!’” said co-author Hadley Rapp at the time of the release of the IPP report. Rapp examined energy-efficiency promotions that include competition among communities, or individual households. “Competition is one way to draw involvement by many who might not otherwise think about their energy efficiency potential,” she said.
