PORTLAND, Maine — It's been two years since the Green Home + Energy show was held at The Point, a community center in South Portland. The last two events were canceled because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The show featured 50 vendors from a wide range of industries including solar energy, heat pumps, and air quality insulation. There were also 14 workshops for people to sign up for.

“To have all these experts here in one place is a phenomenal opportunity," Heather Chandler, owner and producer of the Green Home + Energy Show, said. “I think it’s just a time that people are much more interested in these topics, and they want to know about how to save money on their energy costs, and they’re really curious about electric vehicles.”
