Lots of info available!
- Martin Green has created a Discord server for discussion of Home Energy Retrofit
- Have a look at the great videos at BetterHomesTO

- The Pocket Change Project put together a very interesting presentation for GNN on the topic of “Scaling Up Single Family Home Retrofits: A Community-based Approach to Setting up a Retrofit Coordination Service“

Lastly, Bob Bach, one of our members, recently wrote a very interesting article “Imagine Our Community Powered Entirely by Solar Energy” where he discusses his experience with adding Solar PV to his home, as well as the recent discussion in Ontario on allowing “community net metering projects.” Bob concludes that “Community Solar PV would seem to have a future in Ontario, and in Canada, and you can be ahead of the market by simply installing a system now.”
There is an overwhelming amount of information. One of our objectives is to create a summary of the information available, and hopefully some recommendations. Stay tuned. Or – even better – if you have thoughts on what that summary should look like please let us know.
