This is a unique opportunity for you to help your community in its time of need and great opportunity.
Our Mission:
Reduce CO2 emissions
and
Create energy systems that are:
Affordable, Reliable and Clean.
You can also volunteer your time–our most precious gift. The initial work is to build 3 teams, headed up by a team leader.
Conservation Team
- Develop a conservation plan for the community, implementing energy audits, remediation and other programs for sustainability
Clean Energy Team
- Researching and encouraging clean energy solutions that work in our community (Wind, Solar, geothermal, hydro, diesel)
Funding
- Researching stimulus, government agencies, writing grants
Professional resources: legal, financial, legislative and marketing professionals.
Joining this effort involves a commitment of time and action. Likely hours per week not to exceed 2 hours. Slightly more may be required at the onset.
You need not be living at Kirkwood full-time to join.
Together, we can form a new energy future–a future that is affordable, clean and reliable for our pristine, wild and beautiful mountain community.

I just learned about this blog. I’m interested in the MU/KMPUD developments. I’m also interested in solar. I think I might be able to use it at my cabin, but I need to learn more.
I want to “sign up” to be notified of updates, but I can’t seem to figure out how to do that. I could use some help.
Thanks!

Yes, solar can work at Kirkwood. Click on the solar tab on this blog site. Eric Richert has some very good information here on what works at Kirkwood. I am putting solar on my home. One of the vendors you may want to speak with is Tahoe Solar Design, Leslie or Bret. Phone number 530-542-0780.
Thanks for your interest in the energy future of Kirkwood . . . and the planet!

Eric and Raejean,
I would like to help you with this. I have my time and energy to offer along with writing and marketing skills. Please forward some information about the Roundtables on July 5 so that I can help notify folks in the community. Thanks to you both for leading this effort!

Hello, My name is Robert Aaron and I have been skiing Kirk wood since 1989. I have two young children that love the outdoors and I am here to protect it. What I would like to introduce to Kirkwood is options and solutions for long term Clean Power. I am working with contacts to evaluate the options for a sustainable future for Kirkwoods power needs. Thank You, Robert 530-545-0411 TAHOE ENERGY SOLUTIONS
