Janice Ashworth, General Manager, The Ottawa Renewable Energy Co-op (OREC), Ottawa, CANADA
This FREE technical workshop and informative talk is offered to iWSE2017 conference participants in collaboration with Ottawa Renewable Energy Co-op (OREC). The workshop focuses on how to earn strong returns (both financial and greenhouse gas reduction) by investing in community-owned solar power projects. The workshop is a good opportunity to share experience, success stories and trends in community solar power.
The Ottawa Renewable Energy Co-op (OREC: www.orec.ca) is a community owner business model. OREC exists to empower Eastern Ontario residents to support the growth of the local renewable energy sector through responsible long-term investments, whose projects produce strong greenhouse gas reduction returns to its democratic co-operative members and the wider community; and strong financial returns to its members.
