OUR WORKING GROUPS

Committees Take the Challenge
​
We have three working groups, all contributing to our goal of reducing our dependence on fossil fuels and creating opportunities for solar in our community to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions and provide savings to families, businesses and our community as a whole.

Our committees are forging ahead, and offer a great place to be part of making our town greener and more economically friendly to all.  Here’s how to jump in:

for Park Electric Coop members, contact Sam Francis: sfrancismt@gmail.com

for Energy Policy: Jim Baerg, jlbaerg@gmail.com



Park Electric Co-Op

We're working with Park Electric customers to open more opportunities for renewable energy in Park 
County, including community solar projects, benefitting customers through household energy savings and contributing to the movement toward a fossil fuel free future.

 Solar Projects Benefitting the Whole Community

'We support local clean energy projects.  We're raising funds for a solar installation at the Senior Center and expect installation in July 2018.  Next we hope to partner with the Shane Lalani Center of the Arts for a energy-saving installation on their roof. These projects fit our YBCC criteria for community buildings where energy savings return a benefit to the entire community and educate our friends and neighbors about the benefits of solar

City-County Energy Policy

We work with city and county officials to craft policies that favor energy efficiency and renewable energy so that plans for new projects will consider these aspects from the start.
