Through conversations at the Edgewater Farmer’s Market and other community events, Edgewater residents began to realize that there was momentum behind solar energy. So a group of residents who work for the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), Clean Energy Collective and Edgewater Collective came together to brainstorm ideas.
Out of these conversations grew an citizen-led initiative to encourage community solar in Edgewater called Solarize Edgewater. You can follow the initiative at facebook.com/SolarizeEdgewater or learn more here. There will be a kick-off meeting for those interested in this initiative on Saturday, April 30 at 10 am at Joyride Brewing Company (2501 Sheridan Blvd.).
Joel has been a resident of Edgewater, Colorado with his family since 2012. He is the Executive Director of local education nonprofit Edgewater Collective and Editor of the Edgewater Echo.
