Solar power course to be held May 5

Posted

OREGON – Another solar course will be offered on Saturday, May 5, from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. at the IREA Headquarters, 1230 E. Honey Creek Rd., Oregon.
An experienced PV installer who has completed more than 600 systems in this part of Illinois will be the instructor. He will present a clear explanation of what solar electricity is and how it works. After the presentation, he will lead the class in assembling an actual PV system meant for home use, wiring it and watching it work. The group will then disassemble it.
The couple who live with the installation at the center which is their home will share their experiences in living with PV.
All equipment will be provided. The fee is $20 for IREA members and $40 for non-members, which includes membership. An optional lunch will be provided for $6. Those who prefer to bring their own lunch may do so.
To enroll or for more information, email sonia.vogl@gmail.com or phone 815-973-4624. Advanced registration is essential. The registration deadline is Wednesday, May 2.
