Annual Go Zero! Tour

Residential buildings account for ​almost a quarter of all energy usage​ in the state of Oregon, and zero energy home design is an important strategy in climate adaptation. Join Solar Oregon for an open house tour of zero energy and "path to zero" homes across the state.

This year’s tour will look a little different, but we still have an exciting experience planned! The event will include a self-guided walking tour of two open houses in North Portland that are either net-zero or on the path to net-zero. We’ll wrap up with a happy hour at a local business, where you'll find videos and information showcasing net-zero homes from across Oregon—not just the Portland Metro area.

Now is the time to take advantage of the Solar Investment Tax Credit!

If you want to take advantage of the federal Solar Investment Tax Credit, now is the time to go solar!

In this free workshop, we will answer your questions about how solar energy and battery systems work, share information about incentives available, and help you take the first step to add solar to your home or business.

This workshop is free and open to everyone!
