Solarize Union County Workshops and Incentives

Solarize Union County Workshops and Incentives

Have you been waiting for the right time to ‘go solar?’ Do you want to support your local economy while installing a solar thermal system for a fraction of the price? Oregon Rural Action and their members have been rolling out Solarize Union County! Solarize is a community-wide bulk purchase campaign that provides a simple and affordable solution for homeowners to install solar panels on their homes.

Through our partnership with Union Wallowa Baker Federal Credit Union and Union County, we can offer unbeatable financing options, provide free workshops and let you sign up for a free site assessment with Mr. Sun Solar. The program ends July 15th!

Interested? Contact Energy Organizer, Bridget Callahan, at bridget@oregonrural.org or by phone 541.975.2411


Learn how to get solar thermal at home with Solarize Union County. Attend one of our introductory workshops and we’ll explain the benefits of buying in bulk with our neighbors, describe how to participate, and provide you with an introduction to the Solarize program. Workshops for solar and weatherization are free and open to anyone interested in participating in this community-based project. Choose one that works for you!
