The world-wide solar electric power industry is a multi-billion dollar industry with annual growth rates of 30%. Continuous technical development and massive manufacturing investment continue to bring the costs down, creating new innovative products and markets throughout the world. Join us for an eye-opening discussion of solar electricity what it can do, where it fits, what it costs, where the technology is going, and its opportunities as a distributed generator. The talk is followed by a tour of EPCOR's commercial building-integrated solar electric generating plant where you will see a prime example of the opportunities for solar electricity.
