Webinar: Shining a Light on Solar at Tufts

This webinar will spotlight the benefits and challenges of solar energy at Tufts, including Tufts’ current use and plans to further incorporate this renewable energy. We will be joined by Ruth Bennet, Senior Director of Capital Programs, who will discuss Tufts’ current solar arrays and our history with solar energy. Bill Thistle, Director of Purchasing, will then dive into community solar (think crowd-sharing for solar) and how it can be incorporated into Tufts’ energy source. Tina Woolston, Tufts’ own Sustainability Program Director, will also cover Virtual Power Purchasing Agreements and other options for Tufts to increase its use of solar.

This is the sixth installment in the ‘Path to Carbon Neutrality’ webinar series, hosted by the Office of Sustainability. Throughout the year, this webinar series is exploring the actions Tufts is taking to reach its goals of carbon neutrality and sustainability.
