The City of Goleta is partnering with the Community Environmental Council (CEC) and several other local jurisdictions to encourage residential solar development through CEC’s Solarize Santa Barbara program. The program is designed to help homeowners step-by-step through the solar installation process, and utilizes group purchasing to offer discounts on home systems. As of early 2019, CEC has helped 736 local homeowners, bringing 3.5 megawatts of solar to the Central Coast through the Solarize Program since it launched in 2011.

If you’re a homeowner interested in going solar and or adding battery storage to your existing solar system, attend an upcoming Solarize Santa Barbara workshop on Wednesday, July 10 at 5:30 p.m. at the Goleta Valley Community Center (5679 Hollister Avenue). This workshop is free and open to everyone.

Goleta residents can take advantage of the limited-time discounted price up until August 31, 2019. For more information on the program and how you can go solar, please visit www.SolarizeSB.org or contact info@cecsolarize.org.
