Put Sunshine In Your Wallet!
Close to 300 families and businesses participated in two Go Solar Washington campaigns in the fall of 2011. Together, the Bainbridge and Bellingham campaigns resulted in 55 new systems, adding over a quarter of a megawatt (260 kW) of solar energy.
Best of all, the majority of the components were made here in Washington. Go Solar Washington not only put sunshine in people’s wallets, we helped the local economy by adding green jobs in the state!

Go Solar Testimony
"I am glad to see the Go Solar Washington initiative coming to Bainbridge Island and Bellingham. This can help homeowners and businesses in those communities who want to become energy self-sufficient and convert to clean energy rather than depend on energy from emission-producing fossil fuels. The time to go solar is now."
Phil Rockefeller - Washington State representative to the Northwest Power and Conservation Council, and former State Senator
