We worked with Interfaith Power and Light and Sunbug Solar to create a leasing agreement that works for us, and then put panels on the one south-facing roof we have. It faces a neighboring elementary school, so Sunbug did a special outdoor hands-on class for the 5th graders, who are studying energy.
