SUMMARY:Save Our Solar Rally
DESCRIPTION:Join us on January 20\, 2024 from 2 to 4 p.m. at the State Capital to celebrate the benefits of solar for West Virginia.  \nSolar is under attack by legislators and monopoly utilities that are leading the effort to change net metering rules—important policies that ensure solar is economically viable and accessible to all consumers. We cannot let this happen. \nCommunity solar and net metering are important to West Virginians\, we want a sustainable future and fair compensation for the power we produce. \nThis indoor/outdoor event will include speakers from the industry\, decision makers\, and solar customers\, as well as advocacy training and the chance to speak face-to-face with key decision makers. Music and limited refreshments will be provided. Register now to participate in ride sharing or catch one of our buses from across the state! We hope to see you there. \nPlease register for the event here.
