A Survey of Solar Energy Roof Applications for NYC: Solar Thermal,
Photovoltaics, Green Roofs and White Roofs

Our roofs have an enormous potential to accommodate clean solar energy
applications and therefore to address a number of our most pressing local
energy challenges, including the urban heat island effect, escalating
household energy costs, power failure, growing carbon emissions, and poor
air quality.  In this workshop Solar One will introduce, define and discuss
the economic and quality of life implications of three solar rooftop
applications that have considerable promise in the five borough area: solar
thermal technology, photovoltaics and white roofs.

Navigating NYC’s Recycling Landscape

Residential building managers, superintendents, board members and others
will benefit from this presentation from the Office of Recycling Outreach
and Education (OROE).  Hear about new recycling laws and old misconceptions.
Find out how to avoid fines, improve your recycling program and get your
tenants to recycle.  Learn about other ways to reduce waste, recycle more
and help make NYC a little greener. OROE is a program of the Council on the
Environment of New York City.
 Combating Rising Energy Costs with Energy Efficiency for Multifamily
Buildings
Concerned about the increasing costs of energy in your building?  Learn how
to improve your building’s energy efficiency in lighting, appliances, and
heating systems, thereby lowering your fuel and utility bills.  Also find
out what government and utility incentives are available for your building.


Free!  Refreshments will be served.  Vendors will be available to answer any
technical questions about energy audits, different roof applications, and
recycling.

GREEN FROM THE GROUND UP is a product of Solar One. This series was made
possible by a grant from the Environmental Protection Agency.
