Shoreline Solar Project

Largest Solar installation in Shoreline comes on line
Ribbon Cutting Ceremony

After 6 years of promoting solar installations in the City of Shoreline, the non-profit Shoreline Solar Project is pleased to announce a Ribbon Cutting ceremony on Wednesday, March 31st to celebrate the new 20.2 kW solar electric system on the City Hall's parking garage. 

Utilizing Made-in-Washington solar modules from Arlington based Silicon Energy, and installed by Shoreline based Northwest Mechanical, Inc, the solar array generates electric power while also providing shade for an entire row cars on the upper parking level.  Seattle City Light provided assistance for solar modules, and system display and monitoring services in conjunction with the Bonneville Education Foundation.

After the ribbon cutting, Shoreline Solar Project's co-founder, Larry Owens is presenting a free "Solar 101" seminar covering Solar Electric and Solar Hot Water systems including those installed on the City Hall property.
