YAKIMA — A new campaign encouraging adoption of solar-powered energy could soon be coming to Yakima.
The Yakima Harold-Republic reports that a resolution on the City Council’s Tuesday agenda authorizes an agreement with Spark Northwest to invest in solar energy.
Spark Northwest is a Seattle-based nonprofit founded in 2001 that supports local efforts for residents in Washington and Oregon
Under the terms of the agreement, Spark Northwest would provide training and technical assistance to a volunteer committee of residents, who would ultimately choose and purchase a solar contractor through a formal public bidding process.
