Details about event

Sunday, September 21, from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m.
Corban Commons, 3426 Corban Commons Drive, Columbus, OH 43219

Sun Day is a nationwide celebration of clean energy progress and a call to accelerate the transition that's already underway. We'll be joining communities across the country to showcase the businesses, organizations, and families that are already leading the way to a clean energy future. Corban Commons is an affordable senior living center in Columbus that recently added a large rooftop and ground-mount solar array.

Whether you're motivated by saving money on your energy bills, breathing cleaner air, fighting climate change, or supporting good-paying American jobs – Sun Day is for you. The clean energy revolution is happening. Let's make sure it happens fast enough, and that everyone can benefit from it.

Join us at 2:30 p.m. to speak with climate, sustainability and renewable energy organizations in Central Ohio. Presentations begin at 3 p.m. on Ohio-specific solar challenges and opportunities, including the potential for industrial-scale solar, agrivoltaics, and community solar legislation. Children can participate in art activities, and snacks will be provided. There will be additional tabling and mingling after the presentations until 5 p.m.
