Power Hour: Is solar on the horizon for you in 2020?

Power Hours are networking events with a panel of experts to ignite new conversations around energy efficiency. 

Please RSVP in advance.

The solar market is a dynamic force in 2020 with lots of new opportunities for more of our community to reap the benefits of solar power. While the long-standing federal tax credit has decreased slightly, opportunities in Oregon, including increased income-qualified incentives, will make solar more accessible for more families. Other programs including community solar and community investment coop models will shake up our opportunities even more. Come see what’s on the horizon for 2020 and make sure you aren’t missing out on the chance to make the switch to clean energy this year!

Schedule:

5:00 – 5:30pm: Networking
5:30 – 6:30pm: Panel Discussion, Q&A
6:30 – 7:00pm: Networking

Speakers:

• Dan Orzech is the General Manager of the Oregon Clean Power Coop, the only state-wide renewable energy co-op in the U.S. A native Oregonian, and graduate of Reed College, he has worked in the solar industry for the last decade, developing or consulting on a total of more than 25 megawatts of solar projects across the U.S.
• Joe Mazzarella works with Sunlight Solar Energy as part of their System Design and Project Development teams. After graduating from Washington State University and taking a brief seven-year Rocky Mountain ski hiatus, Joe moved to Bend in 2000. Joe ran his own house painting company from 2001-2011 before switching gears to the solar field full time. Since then, Joe has helped hundreds of homes, businesses, schools and municipalities go solar throughout the state. He has been trained and certified by NABCEP in Technical Sales, and enjoys sharing his knowledge of solar and passion for the environment with solar workshops for kids and adults alike. When not out promoting the power of the sun (or enjoying it while skiing and fishing), Joe can usually be found at home doing dishes.
