In this session, we will explore the future of the solar industry and examine the positive impact that renewable energy and lower emissions have on the environment.
Topics of Discussion:
- How state and federal policies can either hinder or enhance the growth of the renewable solar energy market
- New technologies in solar panel manufacturing and battery storage
- How high energy sectors can leverage solar energy to their benefit
- Case studies of two municipalities engaged in solar initiatives:
- Dayton: A 49 megawatt project spanning 250 acres, capable of meeting the energy needs of over 14,000 homes
- Euclid: A rooftop solar array on City Hall installed several years ago, with insights into their future plans and the performance of the array over time
We will leave ample time for Q&A and open discussion.
