Renewable Energy Roundup Environmental Educational Day
November 24 @ 11:11 pm
Prior to the official opening of the 12th Annual Renewable Energy Roundup & Green Living Fair (The Roundup) is a Pre-event Educational Day that includes workshops for adults and a Kids Environmental Program where kids from local schools are encouraged to participate in a full day of programs and hands-on environmental projects.
Kids Environmental Program: 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
Adult workshops: noon to 4:00 p.m.
Workshops include:
Rainwater Harvesting
Dick Peterson leads the workshop where participants actually assemble a small 100-150 gallon rainwater system. The workshop will take you thru different parts and assembly options. You’ll walk away with a firm grasp of knowledge to set up your own small rainwater system. An actual system will be assembled in the workshop and auctioned off during the roundup.
Small Wind
Have you asked yourself is small wind right for me? In this workshop Ken Starcher from the Alternative Energy Institute gives an overview of wind applications and their benefits. You gain knowledge needed for setting up your own wind system.
Understanding the Financials of Solar
Circular Energy is passionate about creating a better tomorrow through solar technology. Learn how a proper design can have significant effects on energy production, aesthetic appearance, and most importantly, cost. This course will provide attendees with a foundation of knowledge specific to the design of a solar PV system. The 1- hour course provides attendees, architects and AIA members with CEU credits for AIA & USGBC certification.
