Last Days to Register for Solarize Northeast!

By Gene Lee, NECN Project Lead

The Northeast Coalition of Neighbors (NECN) has partnered with Mr. Sun Solar, Umpqua Bank and Neil Kelly to help meet the demand for an easy affordable pathway to solar as well as energy efficiency improvements for the homes in our community. NECN, Portland Bureau of Planning and Sustainability, and Solar Oregon are working together to provide information on the tax credits and cash incentives, along with a variety of financing and ownership options, in order to provide homeowners with a community-supported pathway to energy independence.

Through Solarize NE, NECN organizes the community around saving energy, saving money, and saving the planet. Join forces with your neighbors and help your neighborhood become a leader in Oregon’s Renewable Energy Future.

Attend our final free workshop on Saturday, May 12^th and learn how solar energy can work on your home. The workshop will cover the basics of going solar, explain tax credits and cash incentives, and review financing and lease options.
