Organizing Renewable Energy Community Power Projects

Submitted by Timna Ben-Ari on September 14, 2012 - 2:43pm

In cooperation with the Ontario Non-Profit Network, the Climate Change Lawyers Network is offering a session on how community groups can participate in the Feed-in Tariff Program for renewable energy:

Friday, September 28 - 8:30am - 1pm - Victoria College, University of Toronto

Ontario’s Feed-in Tariff (FIT) Program for renewable energy is a potential source of funds for community groups as well as a way to address the climate change challenge. Join the Climate Change Lawyer’s Network to learn more about how community groups can participate in the FIT Program. The session is relevant to any community group with an interest in participating in a renewable power project, and particularly those groups which own or control roof space suitable for renewable energy installations. The speakers will provide information on the key elements of successful projects, how to obtain project funding (including the Community Energy Partnership Program), how to contract out the building and maintenance of the project, and many more practical tools.
