You are invited to the national Interfaith Power &’ Light’s Summer Solstice Webinar on June 21 to hear how the latest national Solar Certified Cool Congregations reduced the carbon footprint of several communities of faith around the country and to become inspired to cut the carbon at your house of worship.
What better way to celebrate the summer solstice than to be inspired by congregations that are using the energy of the sun to do their part in healing our Sacred Earth.
A full range of congregations will present their experiences:
Taftsville Chapel Mennonite Fellowship, a tiny church with only 55 members, has reduced the emissions from their worship facility by 40%, saving 15 tons of carbon emissions and nearly $2,000 per year in energy costs.
We’ll also hear from a medium sized congregation with audacious net zero emissions plans, and a huge congregation that paid $0 down and is certified at the 20% carbon reduction level.
Learn how they got started, overcame challenges, and successfully cut their energy use through energy efficiency upgrades and solar installations.
IPL will also present an overview on various methods congregations use to finance solar based on IPL’s free Solar Financing Guide that I authored, based on my decades-long experience with renewable energy.
