2009 Berea Solar Tour

The 4th Annual Berea Solar Tour will be held Saturday October 3 in conjunction with the National Solar Tour. Thirteen Berea homes and other buildings that use solar energy will be open for public viewing and conversation with the owners. A guided bus tour of some of the sites, a car caravan to a Garrard County off-the-grid home, and three public presentations on home solar energy use and energy conservation round out the day.

Solar energy will be a key part of Berea’s future energy supply. The Solar Tour provides an opportunity to learn from homeowners who are already using solar, and to consider whether some type of solar energy makes sense for your house.

The Berea Solar Tour is organized by Sustainable Berea and supported by MACED and KySES.

Open houses are available for viewing anytime 11am to 4pm.
