Description

Tour a zero energy home by Ichijo, and learn about the value of combining solar and energy efficiency in a new home In the market for a new home? Curious about clean energy for your home or business? Join the nonprofit Solar Oregon for the latest in a series of zero energy site showcases that demonstrate the value of combining solar and energy efficiency in a new home or business. On January 26th we will take a guided tour of a model home in Ichijo's Reed's Crossing neighborhood in Hillsboro, Oregon. Ichijo is a Japanese builder that specializes in high performance and technologically capable homes. The Reed's Crossing neighborhood is one of the first "zero-energy-ready" housing tracts in Oregon, making it a trend-setter in sustainable development. Before construction, each home is modeled to ensure that it can achieve zero net energy use over the course of a typical year through a combination of efficiency and rooftop solar-readiness. Enjoy a guided tour of the site, get your questions answered about solar and energy efficiency, and meet other clean energy enthusiasts. Masks are required. Thank you to Ichijo, and to our sponsor Energy Trust of Oregon: Solar Oregon is a 501 c(3) member and volunteer-based organization with activities across Oregon and alliances throughout the Pacific Northwest. We are working to build a clean energy future.
