Last minute reminder and in case you didn't get any of the previous notices - see the announcement below regarding an event at 7pm tonight in Voluneteers Hall at the Library.

If you have any questions or recommendations about the future of renewable energy legislation - regarding SRECs, net metering, or anything related to community solar, this event is your chance to communicate them and hear from our legislators on these topics.

Thanks,

Energy Legislation Summit in Harvard
Tuesday, May 28, 7pm, Harvard Public Library, Volunteers Hall

State Senator Jamie Eldridge and Representative Jen Benson will visit Harvard to discuss pending legislation promoting renewable energy and energy efficiency, and to gather feedback and ideas from Harvard residents on Tuesday, May 28, at 7 p.m. in Volunteers Hall.

For the last several years, Harvard has been on the forefront of statewide efforts to reduce municipal and residential energy consumption and promote clean energy alternatives for municipal and residential use. Much progress has been made, but obstacles remain, and legislation filed by elected representatives can help Harvard and other communities move forward. The Harvard Energy Advisory Committee and representatives of the Harvard Solar Garden will describe their energy conservation efforts and then Senator Eldridge and Representative Benson will give an update on the bills they’ve filed or sponsored promoting these efforts.

There will be ample time for Q&A; Jen and Jamie want to hear our ideas and concerns on these important issues.

Energy-related bills for this legislative session

  • An Act promoting total impact energy analysis
  • An Act creating a grant program for municipal and regional energy efficiency managers
  • An Act relative to energy efficiency funds generated by municipal light plants
  • An Act further promoting energy efficiency and green jobs
  • An Act relative to promoting zero net energy
  • An Act relative to equitable taxation of solar systems
  • An Act to modernize the renewable energy property tax exemption

 

The event is cosponsored by the Harvard Energy Advisory Committee and the League of Women Voters.
