Hydrogen as a Fuel Source- Taking Renewable Energy Beyond the Grid
Solar Oregon is excited to host Ken Dragoon, Executive Director of Oregon’s own Renewable Hydrogen Alliance for a talk on Hydrogen as a clean fuel source.
Imagine a technology that can:
Boost the value of solar generated power;
Use solar electricity to reduce carbon emissions in heating, transportation, and manufacturing sectors;
Provide gigawatt-scale balancing services to electric grids;
Solve the riddle of seasonal renewable electricity storage; and
Expand the market for renewable resources by factors of two to four, potentially with little or no new transmission capacity.
Too good to be true? Ken will explain how creating fuels with renewable electricity can, and will do all these things. This is not your father’s hydrogen economy, it’s real and it’s now. Preview his talk with this 15 minute interview on KXRY from April 24.
Workshops & Webinars
Solar Oregon provides a variety of solar workshops and webinars. In our monthly How to Go Solar + Storage webinar, we will answer your questions about how solar works, share information about incentives available, and help you take the first step to add solar to your home or business. Participants will come away with basic knowledge about solar energy systems and will be prepared to do more focused research on their own, or start working with a contractor right away.
Our solar and storage workshops are sponsored by the Energy Trust of Oregon. Energy Trust of Oregon provides cash incentives to install solar and contractor connections to experienced trade allies so that obtaining solar for your home or business.

With solar and storage becoming more accessible, homes and businesses across the state are installing systems. We also host solar showcases to highlight these projects and give you a chance to see how your neighbors and fellow Oregonians are using solar power.
