Wednesday, November 20, 2013 | 2:00- 3:00 PM EST

 

As part of the U.S. Department of Energy's SunShot Solar Outreach Partnership, ICLEI USA and the International City/County Managers Association (ICMA) will host a webinar tailored for municipalities in North Carolina on Solarize programs on November 20, 2013. Solarize programs are designed to help a large group of customers band together to demand discounts on solar PV systems.

This webinar will present a case study on how Asheville is currently creating its own Solarize program and provide an open dialogue discussing how other cities can implement their own Solarize campaigns. Those involved in the implementation of the Asheville Solarize program will be available for questions and answers.

More info and Registration.
