Coronado Solar Community Seminar Taking Place SATURDAY, September 12th

Phase II of Coronado Solar Community Discount Program Announcement this Saturday in the Sand Dollar Room (Community Center) Phase I of the Coronado Goes Solar campaign was a huge success! Thank you for your contributing support in transitioning our city into a sustainable community. Coronado resident Dan Sullivan and his team announced their vision for Coronado to be the first city in the nation to be powered 100% solar electricity in June. The community embraced the program and the first phase closed with a total of 76.8kW scheduled to be installed on the roofs of 20 Coronado homes. In the last few hours of phase 1, over 20kW worth of contracts we sold, pushing the Community over the 70kW milestone. Collaboratively, the community saved over $45,000 in Phase I of the discount series. These new systems will increase the amount of solar in Coronado by 25% and will move the City’s rank from 142nd in the State to 123rd for number of solar roofs. We could not have done it without you! While we have made wonderful progress, there is still a great deal of work left in making this vision a reality. To continue encouraging Coronado residents to go solar, Sullivan is announcing Phase II of the Community Discount Program at this Saturday’s seminar. In addition to the current state and federal incentives, Sullivan is still offering special discounts for our neighbors!! If more than 70kW (about 20 homes) are sold between 9/2/09 and 12/1/09, everyone in that Phase of the campaign receives an additional 3.75% discount on our systems. It gets better, as discounts get greater as more people sign up. For 100kW sold, everyone who signs up by 12/1/09 will receive 6.25% discounts and for 150kW it goes all the way up to 8.75%. “Phase II of the program is designed to get the City to unite even more around the vision of a 100% Solar Coronado, and to work together toward the larger goal, reaping benefits along the way,” said Sullivan. We already have many pending sales for Phase II and are moving our way to meeting the 70kW goal. Please tell your neighbors, local businesses, churches and government officials to attend the solar community seminar, so that we ALL benefit. We can do this, but we can’t do it without your help. Spread the word! Coronado’s Solar Community Seminar takes place this weekend, on Saturday, September 12th at 1PM in the Coronado Community Center’s Sand Dollar Room. Lunch is provided. We look forward to seeing you there! Go SOLAR, Coronado.
