COMMUNITY SOLAR
Allie Naganuma (Solstice Power Technologies LLC, Partnerships Manager)
Residents, organizations, and businesses can reduce their electricity bills by up to 10% without installing solar panels on their home, and instead enroll in a shared solar farm. Community solar is free to join, voluntary, and renter-friendly. The Town of Taghkanic is partnering with Solstice to help you learn more and sign up at this event. Thanks to the partnership with Solstice, everyone who signs up before April 1, 2024 will receive a $50 gift card, and the town will also receive $50 per sign up to fuel more green projects in the community!
You must bring a recent, complete copy of your electricity bill to sign up at the event.
To sign up on your own, visit solstice.us/tagh or call (866) 826-1997 and reference our referral code: TAGH.

Building Energy Efficiency and Affordability
Fiona Hynes & Christina Bohnsack (Capital Region Clean Energy Hub)
The Capital Region Clean Energy Hub connects residents with resources to make their homes more energy efficient. Our community energy advisors provide free, unbiased advice and information on clean energy technologies and programs. We help low-income households navigate assistance and affordability initiatives such as home energy assessments, NYSERDA’s EmPower+ program, NYS Clean Heat and find additional funding resources for home improvements that may be needed before efficiency projects. We can connect community members with helpful information resources on energy efficiency tax incentives, building science considerations, clean energy job opportunities and more.
