Local communities will work with GRID Alternatives to install a rooftop solar array on the home of a local low-income families in Durango, Grand Junction and the Roaring Fork Valley. Each installation provides over $20,000 in direct financial savings for a family in need, adding to Colorado\u2019s renewable energy goals and offsetting carbon \u2013 equivalent of planting 3,000 trees. Each installation also provides solar job training opportunities for local workforce trainees in one of the fastest-growing industries in the county. <\/p>\n<p>GRID Alternatives Colorado is a non-profit organization with a vision of a successful transition to clean, renewable energy that includes everyone. We bring together community partners, volunteers and job trainees to implement solar power and energy efficiency for low-income families, providing energy cost savings, valuable hands-on experience, and a source of clean, local energy that benefits us all. <\/p>\n<p>Below is a list of events GRID Alternatives Colorado will participate in later this month. All are welcome to attend by RSVP. Media may attend any one of these events to learn more about GRID Alternatives\u2019 program and the communities involved. Each event will include keynote speakers from local government and solar industry leadership and GRID Colorado staff, as well as our clients, job traineers, community volunteers and anyone who is interested in solar access. <\/p>\n<p>Please contact us to learn about volunteer opportunities: colorado@gridalternatives.org <\/p>\n<p><strong>SOLAR ROAD SHOW EVENTS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>DURANGO &#8211; with <\/strong><strong><em>special thanks to Four Corners Office of Resource Efficiencyfor partnering on this build <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Saturday, July 12<\/p>\n<p>10 Rio Vista Circle, Durango CO 81301<\/p>\n<p>8:30 a.m. \u2013 4:30 p.m. <\/p>\n<p>Visit GRID\u2019s first installation site in Durango, meet the homeowner &amp; volunteers, and see our work in action.<\/p>\n<p>OPEN HOUSE: 12:00-1:30pm for lunch, networking and key-note speakers at the installation (10 Rio Vista Circle, Durango CO 81301) <\/p>\n<p>RSVP &amp; more info: cwatkins@gridalternatives.org<\/p>\n<p><strong>GRAND JUNCTION \u2013 <em>with special thanks to Alpine Bank<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Wednesday, July 16<\/p>\n<p>288 S Apple Street, Fruita CO<\/p>\n<p>8:30 a.m. \u2013 4:30 p.m. <\/p>\n<p>Visit GRID\u2019s first installation site in Grand Junction, meet the homeowner &amp; volunteers, and see our work in action.<\/p>\n<p>COMMUNITY EVENT: 5:30-7:30pm Edgewater Brewery, 905 Struthers Ave, Grand Junction CO 81501<\/p>\n<p>Happy hour, networking and keynote speakers<\/p>\n<p>RSVP &amp; more info: tfigel@gridalternatives.org<\/p>\n<p><strong>CARBONDALE &#8211; <\/strong><strong><em>with special thanks to CORE<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Friday, July 18th <\/p>\n<p>668 Sopris Ave., Carbondale<\/p>\n<p>1:30 \u2013 3:30p Solar installation open house <\/p>\n<p>Visit GRID\u2019s first installation site in the valley, meet the homeowner &amp; volunteers, and see our work in action.<\/p>\n<p>COMMUNITY EVENT: 4:30 \u2013 6:30p Celebration and happy hour at the installation!
