theme is Sustainable Local Living with topics including, Health and
Wellness, Organic Farming and Gardening, Energy Efficiency Savings,
Sustainable Economic Development, Alternative Fuels &
Transportation, Renewable Energy, Natural Building and More!
The Basics of Going Solar workshop covers why solar is a smart
choice for Oregon. Come find out:
- How well solar works in Oregon's climate
- Available solar technologies and how they fit into your overall energy use
- Site considerations
- The financial considerations of going solar including incentives and tax credits
- Leasing, power purchase and regional solar bulk purchase options
Residential tax credits and incentives often pay for up to 75% of the cost!
Participants will come away with basic knowledge about solar energy systems and will be prepared to do more focused research on their own and start working with a contractor.
