HOSPITAL OF LIGHTS (7 MIN)

SolarWorld donated the solar panels for Hospital Lumière – a nonprofit, 120-bed primary care and medical-surgical hospital operated by Apostolic Christian HarvestCall – through the company’s Solar2World program, which provides solar panels for community-oriented, rural-electrification projects in developing economies.

 Smucker’s Energy, a SolarWorld Authorized Installer based in Lancaster County, Pa., designed and built the system at cost with a volunteer crew and reduced engineering cost from engineer of record, Michael P. Manlove, based in Hershey, Pa. Solar World distributor Civic Solar provided engineering support and major components at reduced cost.

We will view the 5 min video that portrays the project. See press release.

6:30 FEATURE PRESENTATION:

CATCHING THE SUN (75 MINS)
hashtag #SUNCATCHER

Through the stories of workers and entrepreneurs in the U.S. and China, Catching the Sun captures the global race to lead the clean energy future. Over the course of a solar jobs training program, Catching the Sun follows the hope and heartbreak of unemployed American workers seeking jobs in the solar industry. With countries like China investing in innovative technologies and capitalizing on this trillion-dollar opportunity, Catching the Sun tells the story of the global energy transition from the perspective of workers and entrepreneurs building solutions to income inequality and climate change with their own hands. Their successes and failures speak to one of the biggest questions of our time: will the U.S. actually be able to build a clean energy economy?

Together we can make a clean green economy.
