ESSEX POWERLINES DONATES 1,000 TREES TO AMHERSTBURG,
LASALLE, LEAMINGTON & TECUMSEH

As a part of the Go Green Plant a Tree Campaign, that ran from January 22 – March 31, 2018, Essex Powerlines (EPL) will be planting 1,000 trees in its shareholder municipalities. The campaign encouraged EPL customers to make the switch to paperless billing and as added green initiative to the community, a tree would be planted in their municipality. “We are truly committed to making our communities greener together,” stated Joe Barile, General Manager. “We have to thank our customers who made this such a success.”

The Essex Power team will be out today in Amherstburg planting trees:

In addition to these events, EPL have donated a portion of the trees to elementary schools within each municipality. “It was very important for us to find a way to engage our youth in this initiative. We have seen a great uptake from the elementary schools to take part,” added Barile.
