"Two, four, six, eight, who do we appreciate? SOLAR!" (Pom-poms not included.)
Education
Schools are in a unique position to gain much more than cost savings from buying solar energy from HelioSage. Not only will a school save money over 20 years, but also with a HelioSage solar energy system on its roof, a fascinating field trip is only a ladder away:
- Third graders can learn about renewable energy versus fossil fuels, or about “distributed energy generation” versus “centralized energy generation.”
- Eighth graders can absorb how silicon is used in a photovoltaic cell to create electricity.
- Eleventh graders can explore emerging nano solar technologies in chemistry.
- College students can debate the merits of government subsidies for the renewable industry in economics.
And all of these conversations, all of these educational pursuits originate from a simple field trip to a solar energy system on top of the school roof.
Savings
Imagine how your school system will spend the savings generated from a HelioSage solar energy system: new Apple Mac Pros for the library; soccer goals or lights for the stadium; starting a music program because you can now hire a band director. The list of much needed equipment, supplies, and teachers is endless.
