Burlingame, CA Church Goes Green with Rooftop Solar - Likely Local First
NLCC Solar Installation During Construction
Unique partnership allows church to align its beliefs with its practice by generating much of its energy from the sun!
“We’re super excited about the opportunity to be more green.” said Stewart Perry, Senior Pastor of the church, adding, “Part of our belief is that God created this wonderful world we live in and as a result we should care for it. We believe God wants us to care for each other too. This project lets us do both.” Ken Tam, CEO of The Elfenworks Foundation, added, “We are drawn to partnerships that spark lasting and measurable change, especially demonstration projects that are easily replicable. It’s the first church in our neighborhood, and as far as we know the first church on the San Francisco Peninsula to go green in this way. They’re pointing the way forward for others, and it’s inspiring.”
In addition to providing for the church’s appliances and keeping the lights on, it has enabled the church to take one of the buildings off gas heating entirely, shifting to electric heating that is powered by the sun and much more efficient. The church anticipates being able to take the other building off gas heating in future, as well.
