I'm glad to see the interest in solar energy systems being raised by the micro-loan idea from the Cam Gordon campaign.
Folks interested in learning more about solar in general and a neighborhood approach to increasing solar energy use might want to check out this upcoming event sponsored by Southeast Como Improvement Association. Mark Snyder Windom Park ---------------------------------- Southeast Como Solar Pilot Project Wednesday, August 17th (6:30 p.m.) Van Cleve Park multi-purpose room, 15th & Como Aves SE Topic: What does in mean to utilize solar energy and how can Como residents tap into this free fuel locally. Speakers: Innovative Power Systems, Center for Energy and Environment, and others. Sign me up for solar! is an initiative that we are undertaking to launch the "Southeast Como Solar Pilot Project". We are looking for a few good residents who are interested in solar energy (primarily residential hot water systems) to sign on to our list to receive updates and demonstrate interest in solar energy. We are working on a three pronged approach to try to make the systems as affordable as possible. One of the only solar equipment installers in the state is in the Como neighborhood and we have been actively working with them to partner on this project along with other entities. Solar energy is a way we can reduce our dependence on fossil fuels locally while also benefiting air quality.
