            Everett Barber was a leading pioneer in introducing Solar Energy systems in the Northeastern U.S. and in Connecticut.   He founded “Sunworks”, the first Solar Thermal Collector manufacturing firm in the Northeast; their collectors were used in many Solar Energy systems in Connecticut.   He was on the faculty  (as an engineer) in the Yale School of Architecture.   He later founded “Sunsearch”, a firm which focussed on research in Solar Energy systems.

“Sunsearch, Inc” is now also a leading firm in installing and maintaining Solar Energy systems.   Everett Barber’s presentation will include a discussion of  installation, licensing and related questions – for both Solar Thermal and Solar Electric systems.

 

There will be a discussion period;  you are invited to bring your questions and ideas.
