Renewable Energy Workshop for Berkshires and Valley - June 13, 2008
A small scale wind energy for your home or business presentation will be offered by the Center for Ecological Technology (CET) on Tuesday, June 24, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at the Cummington Community House. Chris Vreeland, a registered professional engineer, will be the featured speaker. Pre-registration is required and a donation of $10 is suggested. Participants may check in for the workshop beginning at 6 p.m.
This workshop is designed to help homeowners, farmers and businesses determine if a small-scale wind turbine would be a good fit for their situation. Attendees will learn the basics about how wind turbines work, the components of a wind energy system, how to determine what size system is needed, whether they have a good site and how to gain additional benefits through energy efficient improvements.
Vreeland will provide an overview of financial incentives available from Massachusetts and the federal government and will summarize a rebate program offered by the Massachusetts Technology Collaborative to help homeowners and small businesses pay for renewable energy systems.
This workshop is co-sponsored by the Hilltown Sustainability Group.
If you are interested in attending, or have questions about the workshop, contact CET at 413-586-7350 ext. 25, or tomasin@cetonline.org. |
