May Program:
Sunnyside Energy's Solar Brownfield Project

The City of Houston has approved a lease agreement with Sunnyside Energy, LLC to advance the Sunnyside Solar Project - an innovative public-private partnership to convert the 240-acre closed landfill in Sunnyside into the largest brownfield solar installation in the nation.

Dori Wolfe, owner of Wolfe Energy, and co-developer of the Sunnyside Energy solar project, will speak on how the project came to be and what is proposed for the former landfill in Sunnyside. If time allows, in her role as Houston Area Co-op Coordinator for the non-profit Solar United Neighbors, she will touch on the various ways people can engage in renewables and how distributed generation can enhance resiliency.
