It is versatile\, clean and you can build a small power plant on your roof! With the current state and federal incentives\, “Going Solar” is cost effective; but it can be complicated. In this class we will cover: how solar works\, permits\, how to connect to the grid and remain with your electric utility company\, how to estimate system size\, energy needs\, cost and simple payback\, how to apply for state and federal incentives\, and how to find qualified contractors. We will also discuss various options for solar storage and how to link your solar to other clean energy options to help reach 100% clean energy.

The 2024 Green House Tour is presented in partnership with the Princeton Public Library\, Princeton Environmental Commission\, and Sustainable Princeton. \nLight refreshments will be provided.
