Outreach & Education

RREAL staff is available to come to your site! If you would like more details about our program, would like us to check out your site's potential for solar energy, or would like to host a solar installation workshop, please email us at info@rreal.org

Recently, we have presented at the Duluth Energy Design Conference & Expo, the Northern Cluster CAP meeting, Brainerd Audubon meeting, and given Solar Hot Water workshops at the Water Foundation.

RREAL has collaborated with the Pine River-Backus Alternative Learning Center, Rural MN CEP, Youth as Resources, and Cass County Juvenile Corrections as part of our commitment to local youth. With the volunteer help of area youth, RREAL has a Solar Demonstration Trailer available to illustrate how solar works!

Upcoming Training

We are planning a solar hot water installation training in September 2006. This training will take place in the Backus area, and we will actually install a system. A NABCEP certified instructor will be leading the training. Watch here for more details, or contact us for more info.
