Sun Power for Schools Program
Green Power EMC's ongoing initiative, Sun Power for Schools, educates students about renewable energy and its impact on the environment. We are partnering with local middle and high schools to install a 1 kW grid-tied photovoltaic system to harness the energy from the sun and provide on-line data monitoring to the classroom. This represents the first statewide academic program to showcase the benefits of solar energy.
