WHY SOLAR? 

Save money: Solar prices have dropped 85% over the last 7 years and are still dropping Installing solar panels can reduce electricity bills and protect against fluctuating electricity costs. With an average lifespan of 25 years, solar panels can save millions of dollars in the long run.  

Cutting-edge education:  Solar panels offer unique opportunities to integrate hands-on experience into curricula prepare students for today's jobs.   

Create our environmental vision in Fairfax: Solar power is a clean and renewable way to produce energy, and does not leave behind water polluting waste products or cause spills that harm wildlife.
