Solar Town Hall on May 5th
OPALCO Island Way Workshops Begin:
Enter to Win Ten Shares of Community Solar!
Interested in solar? A Solar Town Hall is the first in a series of co-op workshops designed to help members prepare their homes and businesses to meet the challenges of the transition away from fossil fuels. The Island Way campaign (https://energysavings.opalco.com/the-island-way/) launched in early 2021 to help us determine our own energy future in the face of major changes in the energy world.
This Solar Town Hall workshop on Zoom will address the 2021 Community Solar project, residential solar and battery projects, commercial solar opportunites and an introduction to the upcoming board discussion of solar rates. Industry experts from Puget Sound Solar and the Community Energy Challenge will join OPALCO staff to share information and answer questions. The hour-long session includes time for community discussion.
OPALCO is raffling off two prizes to members who participate in these Island Way workshops: a Greenworks electric lawnmower and ten shares of the 2021 Community Solar Project. OPALCO members will enter to win with each session they attend, beginning with the Annual Meeting (4/24). The more sessions attended, the more entries in the raffle! The two winning names will be drawn on October 1st.
To register for the Solar Town hall, please email communications@opalco.com.
