PRESS & REFERENCES

LIVE GREEN was named a 2009 Maryland Home Performance Contractor of the Year by the Maryland Energy Administration.

LIVE GREEN is highly recommended by subscribers to Washington Consumer Checkbook, a non-profit consumer information & service resource.

LIVE GREEN & Michael Whelan are the subject of an article published in the Washington Post (May 7, 2009) and the Gazette (May 6, 2009). The article (reported by Andrew Ujifusa) focuses on Michael's home energy efficiency services and the assistance he provides to the Town of Chevy Chase on its climate protection efforts. (Read article)

LIVE GREEN was featured in a Washington Post Magazine article (Feb 15, 2009, Liza Mundy). (Read excerpt) In the follow-up online chat, the author was asked whether it was useful to have the home energy audit, to which she responded: "Extremely useful.  I highly recommend it."

The implementation of a LIVE GREEN project was filmed (early Feb 2009) for an upcoming show on green building practices.

An entire installment of the TV program “Focus with Haig Ellian” (Nov 2008) featured Michael Whelan describing the Home Performance Analysis process and its benefits to homeowners.
