Across denominations, faith-based groups have been leaders in advancing sustainable projects. We learned that there is something special about religious congregations.
In this podcast Paster Tony Setley with Morgantown’s Saint Paul Lutheran Church discusses his congregation’s process for implementing solar panels for what he calls their “mini power plant on the roof.”
Shepherdstown Presbyterian Church installed a 60 panel solar array on the church, the largest community supported solar system in WV. Working with nearly 100 area families and businesses, Shepherdstown-based Solar Holler, West Virginia’s first solar financing company, the church developed a project plan that allowed it to go solar at no cost and without a traditional fundraising campaign.
We talk with Ted Strait about about Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church’s solar and energy efficiency program.
Spencer Presbyterian Church goes solar.
