— Research report from UNC School of Government <br /> — Meeting with County residents <br /> — Upcoming research report from UNC <br /> • Roof-mounted Solar Arrays <br /> Solar Initiatives - Guiding Principles <br /> • Roof integrity <br /> — New or recently replaced <br /> — Adequate structural capacity <br /> • Southern exposure or flat <br /> • Avoid shade (present and future) <br /> • Start small but visible <br /> • Incentivize investment <br /> Initial Assessment & Rogers Road Community Solar Proposed <br /> • Approached by interested group <br /> • In parallel with this analysis, a team of interested residents and solar experts <br /> approached Orange County about the feasibility of installing solar panels on the Rogers <br /> Road Community Center for the benefit of the Rogers-Eubanks community. <br /> David Caldwell, RENA <br /> Ty Fenton, UnitedSolarinitiative.org, nonprofit bringing solar projects to low-income <br /> communities around the world <br /> Rob Pinder, NextClimate.org, nonprofit helping community solar projects in Orange <br /> County <br /> Laura Wenzel, private citizen in neighboring community <br /> Ed Witkin, Owner of Carrboro Solar Works, LL. Also works with <br /> UnitedSolarinitiative.org <br /> Brennan Bouma said he had been working closely with this group to assess the <br /> feasibility and benefits of this project as a potential pilot solar project for Orange County. He <br /> said the Rogers Road Community Center (RRCC) seemed to fit the County's list of <br /> characteristics, and staff worked with the RRCC team to conduct an initial solar energy <br /> assessment on this building. He said staff has employed the "PVWatts" calculator from the <br /> National Renewable Energy Laboratory to assist in modeling, sizing, and prioritizing solar <br /> photovoltaic infrastructure investments (http://Pvwatts.nrel.govlpvwatts.php). <br /> Rob Pender, of www.NextClimate.org, said the intent of the "Solarize" campaigns is to <br /> lower the cost of rooftop photovoltaic systems through pulling together interested households <br /> and commercial users into a group-purchasing deal. NextClimate, a local 501 c (3) non-profit, <br /> organizes the four Solarize campaigns that are active in Orange County (Orange County, <br /> Hillsborough, Chapel Hill, and Carrboro). <br /> Rob Pender said in 2014, NextClimate brought together two solar installation <br /> companies (Yes! Solar Solutions and Southern Energy Management), and two financing <br /> organizations (Admiral's Bank and Self Help Credit Union) with the mission to bring affordable <br /> solar power to the people of Orange County, Carrboro, Chapel Hill, and Hillsborough. He said <br /> their efforts resulted in new solar installations on 90 homes and small businesses across <br /> Orange County in 2014. He said in 2015, NextClimate is expanding its reach to create <br /> Solarize Research Triangle, bringing solar investment and benefits to RTP workplaces. <br />
