Middlebury — Solar energy is powering more and more residences and commercial operations in Addison County, Vt. To mark its footprint in the solar enterprise, Vermont-based solar-array installer SunCommon is opening a unique solar store at 20 Main St. in downtown Middlebury.
“We will be setting a new solar goal for the county and announcing an exciting new solar program for farms,” according to Andrea Ochs, a self-described solar organizer. “In addition to solar workshops offered by our staff, local artists and nonprofits will use the pop-up space to display work and host clean energy related events.”
Ochs said an open house will be held Tuesday, June 18, at 11 a.m. at the 20 Main St.
“We’re thrilled that State Rep. Lanpher will join SunCommon in celebrating the launch of our Pop-Up Solar Art Gallery and Store as we continue to help Addison County homeowners go solar,” said Duane Peterson, SunCommon’s president.
