Energy Savings Trees

Energy Savings Trees logoOcala Electric Utility has partnered with the Arbor Day Foundation to bring more trees to Ocala through our Energy- Saving Trees program.

Planting the right tree in the right place is key to maximizing the energy-saving benefits that trees provide. When planted properly, a single tree can save a homeowner up to 20% on energy costs.

But trees do much more than provide energy savings to you, the homeowner. They also provide tangible benefits for the entire community: improved air quality, reduced stormwater runoff, beautification of your neighborhood, reduced urban heat island effect, and a smaller carbon footprint, just to name a few.

Ocala Electric Utility will provide residents with one free tree Monday, March 4 through Sunday, June 30 while supplies last.
