Solar Energizes Mi Casa!  

 

 

Mi Casa recently completed the installation of a 40.5kW solar energy array at our home on Acoma Street.   

 

 

 Solar energy is a triple win for Mi Casa!

 

 

 

1. Grads of Mi Casa's Green Construction & Energy training (including Geronimo, above) gained on-the-job training experience installing Mi Casa's 180 solar panels  

 

2. Mi Casa's solar array will produce an estimated 53,330 kWh per year, covering 24% of Mi Casa's total energy consumption at our Acoma Street location 

 

3. The savings from solar will be reinvested in career training programs to help workers launch careers in growth industries    

 

Come check it out for yourself! Join us for a ribbon-cutting event including a tour and presentation of the  solar array.

Today's Business Resource Fair & Networking Event

features an address from Maria Vogt, CEO of Ayuda Management. Maria founded her company in 2002 in the midst of a divorce and custody battle. She had no capital - nothing but an idea, her cell phone, and a strong drive to be her own boss. Less than 10 years later, Maria's company posted annual revenues of $24 million.

 

This event is FREE and open to the public!
