SOLAR SAVES TAX DOLLARS: Solar schools are growing in Indiana and across America. Here in Hamilton County, Fishers, Noblesville and Sheridan schools have solar. Carmel library has solar. Carmel Utilities has solar. The Hamilton County jail has solar. Solar saves tax dollars.
COST/BENEFIT: Electricity is one of highest budget items for schools. Solar provides a 30-year fixed cost for energy and protects the school district from rising energy costs. Energy savings can be redirected to the classroom. For example, solar saved an Arkansas school enough for teachers to get up to $15K in raises.
FEDERAL INCENTIVE: Thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act, schools can get a 30% reduction in the cost of solar.
CURRICULUM: Solar technology is the future. Solar at schools gives students hands-on STEM learning experience.

PROTECTING THE FUTURE FOR STUDENTS: The school board has the responsibility to protect students and the community by lowering its carbon footprint. Solar is the cleanest energy you can get, right where you need it.
CLEAN AIR & WATER: Solar offsets electricity made from coal combustion which is the greatest source of water and air pollution in Indiana.
PARKING LOT SOLAR CANOPIES: Solar canopies provide welcome shade and shelter from downpours, which helps protect against extreme weather expected to get worse.
ENERGY SECURITY & RESILIENCE: Solar provides energy security and resilience benefits to the community. Solar production will reduce load on the local grid, helping to maintain grid stability, especially on sweltering summer days when air conditioners are running high.
