Renewable energy projects have been popping up across the country. Locally, new solar projects have been installed on acreages and connected to the grid. Other solar and wind developments have been proposed for the area. Solar panels can now be seen on many homes and businesses.  

There are many terms flying around related to renewable energy projects such as residential solar, solar farm, community solar, community wind, utility scale project, residential project, etc. ‘What is the difference between these terms?’ ‘How do they fit into my home energy picture or on my land?’ University of Illinois Extension’s Environmental and Energy Stewardship Educator Stanley Solomon will discuss these questions and much more. 

Seating will be limited to 25 attendees. Those attending must wear masks.

The seminar is supported through a grant from the Illinois Science and  Energy Innovation Foundation.
