Please join us to learn about solar photovoltaic energy in Ohio. We will discuss design and the variables in installations to optimize utilization. We'll also discuss additional environmental and health considerations for solar for various sustainability efforts. Reducing your carbon footprint will contribute to cleaner air and better water quality. 

Learning Objectives:

Attendees will learn how solar energy is being adopted across different applications in a variety of environmental conditions.  We will discuss differences in how to optimize solar production based on the site conditions in Ohio. 

Attendees will explore the environmental benefits of solar photovoltaics on the climate and the resulting health benefits to all impacted life forms.  We will examine how renewables as a term to describe the source of energy, also applies to the generating technology itself providing a truly sustainable energy product.

Attendees will evaluate solar energy and the evolution of codes that determine how solar is implemented. We will discuss local and national policies that encourage, or hinder implementation.
