On Saturday, December 10, 2016, more than 70 solar supporters came together in Morgantown for the first West Virginia Solar Congress.
The Solar Congress brought together our state’s solar advocates, co-op members, nonprofits, policy makers, and professionals to discuss solar in West Virginia. There were morning and afternoon breakout sessions as well as a large-group discussion forum. A happy-hour reception followed. Read more about the 2016 West Virginia Solar Congress here.
