In May of 2009, Tim O'Neal from Southeast Uplift and Stephanie Stewart from MTNA (that's me) launched Solarize Portland. With incredible support from the folks at The Energy Trust of Oregon (thanks Lizzie Rubado!), the project really took off. In a big way. Like nothing we could have expected. Whew.
If you are interested in solar panels for your home, look at the Solarize Portland projects. I built Solarize Portland its own website, so I'll let you go there to learn more about it: http://www.solarizeportland.org/
