About the DFW Solar Tour

The tour enables people to learn how their neighbors – homeowners and businesses alike – are using solar energy, wind energy, energy efficiency, and other sustainable technologies to save money and consume less of our natural resources. The strategies and techniques on display during this year’s tour range from things as simple and easy as changing to LED light bulbs and selecting more efficient appliances, to cutting-edge, ultra-efficient eco-homes and businesses that are generating as much or more energy than they consume!

Attend the Solar Tour to:

  • Meet people who have renewable energy installations, learn why they did it, the process, what they love about it and lessons learned.
  • Learn about the different technologies and see how they are installed
  • Hear about how different renewable energy technologies can work together
  • Discover that it is possible to live off-grid using renewable energy
  • Find out all the ways you can use renewable energy to power your life
  • Learn about the latest energy efficiency technologies

Attend the tour and get all of your renewable energy questions answered!
