Advocates of solar power see bright future By ERIK ROBINSON, The Columbian
PORTLAND - Solar energy boosters see broad public support, declining production costs and a financial commitment by Northwest utilities to harness the power of the sun.
Now, they've got a trained work force to make it happen.
A series of three solar panels sits atop the roof of the NECA-IBEW Electrical Training Center in north Portland. On a sun-splashed morning last week, union electricians offered a tour of their new rooftop array of photovoltaic cells.
So far, the center has trained about 200 electricians in solar installations.------------------------------------------- posted 6:32 AM :: reference link ::
