Solarize Brooklyn To Host Two Final Workshops On September 24 And 29
Brooklyn Community Board 6 is helping residents and businesses go green — and saving them money while doing so.
CB6 is offering two final workshops that will discuss a group purchasing program for solarizing both residents and businesses.
The goal of the program is to lower the cost of “going solar” by 10-20% of the regular cost, and is a collaboration by Sustainable CUNY, the NY Solar Partnership with New York Economic Development Corporation, and the Mayor’s Office of Sustainability. The neighborhoods for this program include Park Slope, Gowanus, Carroll Gardens, Cobble Hill, the Columbia Street District, Gowanus, and Red Hook.
In the workshops, you’ll have an opportunity to:
• Learn how the Solarize Program works and how much solar could save your household or business on its energy bills.
• Meet Solarize installers EcoMen Solar and Quixotic Systems.
• Hear about the available solar equipment offerings, power purchase agreements, $0-down financing options, and savings projections.
• Ask questions to the partner installers and get answers on specific considerations for solar at your home.
• Sign up to receive a free, no-obligation site assessment.
At the workshop you will also be able to sign up for a site feasibility evaluation and consultation.
The two remaining sessions are:
When: Thursday, September 24, 6:30-8:30pm
Where: Old First Reformed Church, 729 Carroll Street (at 7th Avenue)
RSVP here.
When: Tuesday, September 29, 9:30-11am
Where: The Roof at Whole Foods, 213 3rd Street (at 3rd Avenue)

If you are unable to attend the workshop, you can still sign up for a free site consultation.
