I just came across a great resource for everything having to do with solar energy. The American Solar Energy Society was established in 1954 and is a nonprofit organization dedicated to increasing the use of solar energy and other renewable energies. There are some great resources such as email updates, green collar jobs reports, resources for green energy professionals, a job board, a tool to help locate local solar installers and the company puts on one of the largest solar conferences in the US, now in its 38th year. Their pillar product is the magazine Solar Today, an award winning magazine discussing local ASES chapters, sustainable transportation, green jobs and more. The latest issue has articles on the basics of solar and wind power, how to slash your utility bills, heating and cooling efficiency, government rebates and financing as well as a buyers guide to vendors and installers.
