A free workshop for Solar Farmers will be held at The Terrace at SUNY New Paltz on Friday, February 5 from 2:00pm – 6:00pm. Highlights of the program will include presentations on designing and installing solar electric (photovoltaic) systems, financing your project and grid connection. There will be a panel discussion with experts in solar energy and representatives from local municipalities, banks, agricultural development offices and utilities to answer your questions on solar energy.
Participants will come away with basic knowledge about photovoltaic systems and will be prepared to do more focused research on their own, or start working with a contractor right away. There will be ample time for networking at the end of the workshop.
The event is sponsored by The Solar Energy Consortium (TSEC): fostering the adoption of solar energy across New York State. Registration is required. For more information or to reserve a seat, contact Wendy Arienzo, at wendy.tsec@gmail.com
