 A group is recruiting families and businesses in Bemidji who want to make the switch to solar energy. Solar United Neighbors held a public information meeting tonight. The nonprofit's goal is to make solar energy more mainstream. They help by forming bulk purchase groups in communities so everyone participating can get one-on-one help with the process. They already have groups in the cities and thought Bemidji would be a good next step. So the Bemidji group kind of brings a whole bunch of neighbors together. You get assistance, understanding what the technology is, kind of walking through all the aspects of it, and then you get to have good pricing from our selected installer, which is WolfTrack Energy. So the group is open. It's free to sign up for the solar co-op group. That way, participants can really determine if going solar is right for them. There are site assessments and the people in the group work with the installers directly to figure out pricing. Solar United Neighbors adds the panels that they are a 25-year investment. Well, I think it's a great time to go solar. The costs have come down a lot in the last five years, but we kind of hit the bottom of that trend. So I think the timing is good. And with solar right now, there's a 30-percent tax credit, so you'll get that the year following the installation that's based on the entire cost. Yeah, and you can sign up through August 31st.
