Is Oregon sunny enough for solar? Solarize Project

Yes. Even Portland and the rainy Willamette Valley receive as much sunshine annually as the average U.S. city. In fact, solar is Oregon's most abundant renewable resource. Today, more than 17,000 Oregon households use solar energy systems to generate electricity or heat water.
