A Colorado county’s unwavering vision to reclaim a local brownfield and turn it into a “greenfield” is coming to fruition this month, with the completion of a community solar array that will harness renewable energy and help the local community for decades to come.
Colorado Governor Hicklenlooper attends the Colorado Community Solarthon, where volunteers and job trainees installed a rooftop community solar array on a municipal building to offset bills for qualifying customers of Fort Collins Utilities.
GRID Alternatives' community solar project developed in partnership with the Yampa Valley Electric Association (YVEA) has provided amazing opportunities to promote women in solar.
The women of WE Build were preparing ourselves for a volunteer workday in Steamboat Springs. We headed out for the 148 kW array at Yampa Valley Electric Association, where we filled up on breakfast and coffee to charge us up for the day.
