BOSTON - Tomorrow, the Town of Mattapoisett and Eversource will host a free community-wide light bulb swap from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m., at the Old Rochester Farmers Market, located at 133 Marion Road.

Mattapoisett residents, with identification, may bring up to five incandescent light bulbs in any condition and exchange them for new, energy-efficient ENERGY STAR® LED bulbs, free of charge. Additional LEDs and lighting products will be available for purchase at a discounted rate.

'The light bulb giveaway is a perfect opportunity for Mattapoisett residents to experience high quality, long-lasting LED bulbs and save money as well,' said Eversource Energy Efficiency Spokesman Bill Stack.

Eversource experts will also be on hand to provide additional tips and strategies to save money and energy at home, such as a no-cost Home Energy Assessment through Mass Save. The service includes a one- to two-hour home visit with a certified energy professional who will assess the home's energy use, install energy-saving measures, and offer rebates and incentives for additional opportunities to save.

Earlier this year, Mattapoisett kicked off an energy-saving partnership with Eversource to cut 25 percent of its residential energy usage by 2018, as part of its Clean Energy Communities program.
