SolWest Renewable Energy Fair

July 25 - 27, 2008 - John Day, OR

“Neighbors Powering Community” is the theme of the 10th annual SolWest Renewable Energy Fair at the Grant County Fairgrounds. Admission includes over 50 free workshops on both off-grid and grid-intertied renewable energy (RE) and sustainable living topics. A pre-fair workshop will install a grid-intertied solar backup power system. Fifty exhibitors show tools for energy independence and lifestyle self-reliance, including solar, wind and agricultural resources. Keynote speaker Greg Pahl, author of The Citizen-powered Energy Handbook, emphasizes renewable resources for neighborhood energy. Alternative vehicle displays highlight efficient transportation technology. Cost is $5 per adult per day, with weekend, youth, and family discounts, volunteers and children under 12 free. Camping is available (free for volunteers).
