The sun is an abundant and free source of power that annually bathes our planet in an enormous amount of energy. The sun powers everything from hot water heaters to calculators and futuristic cars.

But can this vast resource be cheaply harnessed to meet the growing energy needs of New York State? Can solar energy make the leap and become a cornerstone of a clean energy future?

Join NYLCV's Education Fund at 8:00 a.m. on September 24, 2008 for a heated discussion about the future of solar power.

Together with our co-host, New York University's Robert F. Wagner Graduate School of Public Service and its Institute for Civil Infrastructure Systems, we will set the stage for experts to lay out the facts about solar power.

Our panel will be moderated by Matthew Sollars, distinguished energy reporter for Crain's New York Business, and will feature the following energy experts:

Paul DeCotis; Deputy Secretary for Energy, Office of Governor David Patterson

Gil Quiniones; Executive Vice President, New York Power Authority

Ashok Gupta; Air and Energy Program Director, National Resources Defense Council

Randolph Price; Vice President of Environmental Affairs, Con Edison

Anthony Perieria; CEO, AltPower

Please join us at NYU's Kimmel Center (60 Washington Sq. South, Room 914) for a passionate discussion of our energy future!
