Green Energy expo in Akron draws homeowners, businesses interested in going green and saving money

Monday, August 18, 2008

Ohioans are beginning to get even more serious about so-called green energy and that may affect the state's economy. Hundreds of people attended a green energy expo this weekend to learn more about new energy alternatives for home and business. Exhibitors say spiking energy prices have even more people interested in wind and solar. Others want to learn how to train for green energy jobs.
