SLC NEWS UPDATES
Solarize is a nonprofit-sponsored solar energy group purchasing model used to reduce costs and simplify the solar installation process. Now through July 4, 2024, the Sustainable Living Center is partnering with Olympia Solar to bring Solarize to the Walla Walla Valley. We're also offering an informational workshop at the WWCC Water & Environmental Center on April 25.
Ben from Olympia Solar and installer representatives will be on hand to explain how the program works, and answer any questions you have about starting your solar journey.
We'll also talk about an exclusive Walla Walla Valley customer opportunity to access a limited number of $900 rebates by opting in to a low cost home energy assessment.
