At our project’s conclusion, we will make a convincing presentation to our school administration for the installation of a solar array on our school roof to offset a portion of the fossil fuel generated electricity our school uses. To help us reach our goal we plan to hold a fundraiser to pay for a professional solar assessment of our school. This assessment will allow us to determine the size of the potential array, the cost of the hardware with installation, and how much CO2 production will be offset by the functioning array. We further plan to use this fundraiser to reach out to our community and inform them about benefits of solar panels and renewable energy. We plan to tour a similar facility at another school to learn what challenges and successes they had with their solar array. We will investigate external funding sources, including government grants and the possibility of using a third-party investor. All of these steps will give us the information needed to develop project support and create our solar array presentation for the school administration.
