Wisconsin Solar Tour

October 3 & 4, 2008

The Wisconsin Solar Tour will be October 3 & 4, 2008.

The tour demonstrates that renewable energy is practical, reliable and a realistic choice for home and business owners. Tour sites are owned, lived in, and worked in by ordinary people. They are helping others open the door to renewable energy.

Although it is officially called the Wisconsin Solar Tour, sites include all sorts of renewable energy technologies and other innovative features. On the WI Solar Tour you can see:

• Wind and solar (PV) electric systems
• Solar thermal and solar water heating systems
• Green building construction and passive solar design
• Energy efficient heating technologies
• Energy efficient appliances
• Environmentally friendly landscaping
• And more!

On Friday, October 3, businesses around the state will be open to the public. On Saturday, October 4, homes around the state will be open for tours. See below for what sites are near you.

There will also be guided bus tours. Please check back for details.

We have divided the state into 5 different regions. See the map at right to find sites near you.
In each region, there is a grid of sites. The grid features information on each site: city and an at-a-glance checklist of technologies featured at each site. Click on the site’s name for a detailed description, contact information and directions.

The Wisconsin Solar Tour is part of the National Solar Tour, coordinated by the American Solar Energy Society. Don't live in Wisconsin? Check the link to find a tour near you!
