Following our education and demonstration programs, we're seeking to advise other commuity centers how they can adopt similar programs. Global Green is seeking help from a researcher to model a) incentives b) demand charges and other factors to see where and how solar resiliency programs can be cost effective for community centers to adopt similar programs.
