May 27, 2009: Solar Installation
On Wednesday, Global Green was joined by New Orleans’ citizens and green energy leaders at a special event highlighting the progress of the Holy Cross Project as two solar panel systems were installed on the 2nd and 3rd of 5 planned single-family houses under construction at the site. The installations were performed by local renewable energy installer, South Coast Solar, and students of a solar installation training course presented by Louisiana CleanTech Network, a local organization providing green jobs training programs at college campuses throughout the state.
Attendees were invited to view local trainees assisting the South Coast Solar staff with the installation of the solar panels as part of their training to achieve certification as solar installers. Global Green has made development of a green workforce a top priority of its green building programs in New Orleans and around the country.
