Carbondale Chamber of Commerce recently issued the following announcement.
AES Solar joins the nonprofit American Solar Energy Society (ASES) and hundreds of solar-savvy installers and grassroots organizations throughout America to showcase thousands of solar-powered homes, schools, and businesses -- in Southern Illinois and across North America -- for the 23rd Annual National Solar Tour, the world’s largest grassroots solar event.
The event, slated for October 5th, showcases the solar technologies your neighbors are using to 1) drastically reduce monthly energy bills, 2) reduce harmful carbon emissions, and 3) enjoy rich tax credits and cash incentives as they improve their property values.
“The ASES National Solar Tour shows families and businesses real-life examples of how their neighbors are harnessing free energy from the sun to generate electricity, warm and cool their homes, heat water, and slash monthly utility bills,” AES Solar founder Aur Beck said.
Tour stops are still being finalized. For more information, visit http://heartlandsolartour.org/. This tour is “Open House” style, and attendees are free to visit whichever sites they are interested in at any time during the hours of the tour.
