National SOLAR 2007 Conference, Cleveland OH

National SOLAR 2007 Conference
Saturday - Thursday, July 7-12, 2007
Cleveland Convention Center
Hosted by American Solar Energy Society and Green Energy Ohio

Overview:
SOLAR 2007 is the 36th Annual National Solar Energy Conference - the largest and most inclusive renewable energy conference held in the U.S. each year. Cleveland is the perfect home for SOLAR 2007 with the city's ongoing commitment to sustainable growth and a global vision for the future.

The conference theme is "Sustainable Energy Puts America to Work!" and we're proud to feature Rosie the Riveter on the conference logo. Targeting this theme for the first time, we are exploring Ohio's enormous potential for job creation in manufacturing, distirbuting and installing clean energy technologies.

As the local host, Green Energy Ohio is organizing seven tours, more than 20 hands-on workshops and a social event at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. GEO has also set the goal to draw the largest public crowd ever at the conference's "Public Day," scheduled for July 8.

There will be plenty to see and do: tour the Ohio Amish Country, which boasts an estimated 100 kW of installed solar PV systems; visit the laboratories for energy production and space propulsion at the NASA Glenn Research Center; participate in the first-ever small wind and solar thermal installation workshops; take a trip to the PV labs at the University of Toledo and the First Solar manufacturing plant in nearby Perrysburg; or enjoy a boat cruise on Lake Erie.
