1. Residents are invited to attend free educational workshops provided by the City of Beaverton in conjunction with the Energy Trust of Oregon and Solar Oregon.

2. Next is your free solar site assessment from the solar contractor. This will teach you a lot including how big a system you can get and what different options will cost. (You don’t have to have attended a workshop in order to sign up)

3. Each participant, after site assessments and optional educational workshops, decides whether or not to commit to solar.

4. Each participant who decides to commit signs his/her contract with the chosen contractor. This solar contractor will coordinate equipment purchases and the installation schedule to conserve resources.

5. Your system is installed!

6. Everyone gets the appropriate signatures needed and the right paperwork for the Energy Trust of Oregon, the State of Oregon and Federal Tax Credits. Start enjoying your new solar energy!
