SUMMARY:Showcase: Solar & Smart Electrical Panels in Action
DESCRIPTION:Solar is just one of an increasing array of tools available to homeowners that enable efficient\, sustainable\, and resilient energy use. Join Solar Oregon for an in-person look at the smart electric panel. This device promises to increase the flexibility of your home battery\, while also giving unprecedented visibility of how your appliances are consuming energy in real-time.\nAt 6 PM on Thursday\, April 17th\, one inner NE Portland homeowner and early adopter of the Span smart electric panel is opening their doors to the Solar Oregon community for a show-and-tell of their system. Learn from their experience\, hear from industry professionals\, and see how smart panels work with your own eyes. \nThis event is free and open to the public. Space is limited\, so RSVP to reserve your slot. Once you register\, the event address will be shared via email.\nThanks to our sponsor Energy Trust of Oregon!

SUMMARY:Green Energy Series #20: Resiliency through Placemaking
DESCRIPTION:Solar Oregon is presenting a Green Energy series – free talks for those interested in learning more about the technologies and design of zero energy buildings. Solar Oregon is a non-profit educational organization leading the way to a clean energy future. These one-hour seminars will explore solar\, energy storage\, and energy-efficient equipment and design. Envisioned as a follow-up to Solar Oregon’s popular Go Zero home tours\, these online talks will encourage a deeper dive into the technology and allow for Q+A discussion contrasting options to aid in decision making. \nAll webinars will be recorded and included on Solar Oregon’s YouTube channel.\nhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCN9no-FxCRHnICdU-tbb8Eg/featured \nTopic:\nJoin us to be inspired by resiliency projects that any city can use. The Solar Kiosk Strategy provides inspiration for models that activate the space between buildings in the public realm\, with advances in equitable placemaking that is visible\, tangible and accessible.\nCities need creative strategies that advance goals for climate action\, emergency response\, social uplift\, and economic recovery. Discover an intersectional strategy that uses solar power\, community engagement\, urban design and sustainable economic development to add resilience. Join us to learn how a solar kiosk strategy can create a network of small-scale resiliency hubs using placemaking to support emergency response during hazard events. We’ll also demonstrate how this framework is as an intersectional strategy connecting small and large scale investments through urban design and campus and neighborhood scaled master planning to optimize resilience.\nPresenters include environmental designers and planners\, Heather Flint Chatto from Forage Design & Planning\, and Charles Kelley from Green Urban Design\, will describe how a small idea blossomed into an intersectional approach to address social and economic stability in communities challenged by climate change. This presentation offers templates to advance resiliency in any city. Its value is in activating public spaces between buildings through placemaking and energy innovation that is visible\, tangible and accessible to your community to enhance resilience through low cost incremental public and private investments. \nSpeaker Bios:\nEATHER FLINT CHATTO\, LEED AP\nForage Design + Planning\, LLC\nHeather Flint Chatto is the founder of the Kiosk Project\, Owner of Forage Design and Executive Director of the Architectural Heritage Center. She brings more than 25 years of project management\, urban planning and design expertise to the team. Inspired by the kiosks seen around the world\, she has planned a series of streetscape structures that can create dynamic places\, add to the mix of urban support services and create an innovative model that can work for diverse communities to add resilience in emergencies as well as in everyday applications.\nHeather is a two time Woman of Vision Award Winner from the Daily Journal of Commerce. \nCHARLES KELLEY\, LEED BD+C\, AIA\,\nGreen Urban Design LLC.\nCharles Kelley is a senior architect and urban designer with more than 36 years of experience.
