July Spotlight - Homeland Solar

Published on 7/1/2018

July Member Spotlight - Homeland Solar

      Since 2004 (with lifelong Washtenaw County personnel), Homeland Solar – “own your own power™” -  focuses on energy issues and Energy Star building (Dave Friedrichs as owner has been licensed builder since 1990).  The shift into solar came with the technology’s rapid advance (toward universal affordability) – and, specifically, the legislature’s 2008 passage of Public Act 285 (PA285) requiring all utilities to produce 10% of their power from renewable sources by 2015.  (Note – now 15% by 2021.).  We put an emphasis on user-ownership of solar, rather than third-party ownership. Heavy legal and operations background in professional work with community associations can help make solar possible FOR ALL, through user-owned and financed community solar projects, rather than simply the 30% or so of property owners who have favorable south-facing exposure to the sun.
