  • Curious about how to get the most value from your solar panels on your home or small business?  Join our Green Living Workshop with Darren Chu of Solar Club for an easy to follow session all about getting the most from your solar setup.

    We’ll look at how your system connects to the grid, how you receive credit for the extra electricity you produce, and what that means for your energy bill. Darren will share simple ways to make the most of your solar power by choosing the right rate plan, rate switching options, adjusting your household habits, and understanding when joining a solar club might be a good fit. You’ll also learn how to read your bill and see how your system is performing.

    Whether you’re already producing solar power or just thinking about it, this session will help you better understand how it all fits together and how to make your investment go further.
