Community Power Workshop
November 29, 2011
Join Windfall Centre for a hands-on interactive workshop where Ontario Sustainable Energy Association (OSEA) experts will provide you with the basic tools required to get a community solar power project started in your community. Community owned - community controlled and generating economic, environmental and social benefits for you and your neighbours.
his workshop will help you prepare an action plan for a community power project in your neighbourhood. This will be an interactive and highly participative event. We will create a community vision for a project in your neighbourhood - a project you are working on; a project that you see as a possibility or we will use a practical example that is applicable to you.
We will experience the value of working together and use a variety of tools to establish the scope, feasibility and organizational structure for your project.
OSEA will introduce its new Community-Based Renewable Energy Impact Model - local leaders will be provided with a clear understanding of the jobs and expenditures created locally. The Roadmap for Getting Your Project Vision to Reality has been translated into a "Toolkit for Initiating Your Solar (PV) Community Power Project". This will be a take-a-way workbook to help you mobilize your community to think locally and act locally.
Workshop is free and refreshments will be provided, along with the workbook.
Space is limited.
