Solar energy for your home or business11:13AM / Friday, May 01, 2009
BERKSHIRE COUNTY - On Thursday, May 14, the Center for Ecological Technology (CET) will offer a Solar Energy for your Home or Business seminar from 7 to 9 p.m. at the Barrington Brewery, Crissey Farm banquet facility in the Jennifer House Commons. Chris Vreeland, a registered professional engineer, will be the featured speaker. Registration is required and a donation of $10 is suggested. BerkShares are accepted.
Interest in solar hot water and solar electric (photovoltaic) systems for homes, farms, schools and businesses in the Berkshires continues to grow, due to volatile fuel prices and concern about the effects of fossils fuels on our health and environment. Grants and tax incentives are available to help offset the cost of investing in solar energy and other renewable technologies.
This seminar is designed to help homeowners and businesses determine if a solar installation would be a good fit for their situation. Attendees will learn the basics about how solar hot water and solar photovoltaic systems work, the components of a solar 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.
Right now, the Commonwealth Solar program incentives are greatest for households with modest household income and home values and for commercial projects. Vreeland will provide detailed information on these and other financial incentives available fromMassachusetts and the federal government.
For more information or to register for this seminar, contact CET at 413-445-4556 ext. 25, or cynthiag@cetonline.org. |
