Amesville working with SOPEC on SolSmart program

1/19/2017

1 Comment

 
Amesville will be working with SOPEC (Southeastern Ohio Public Energy Council) and SolSmart to gain greater access to solar options for the residents in and around Amesville. SolSmart provides recognition and no-cost technical assistance to help local governments reduce barriers to solar energy growth. With the help of our team of national and local experts, cities, counties, and towns are cutting red tape to make it easier for homes and businesses to go solar. Local governments that achieve these goals are eligible for SolSmart designation, providing national recognition that they are “open for solar business.”

By encouraging solar energy development at the local level, SolSmart helps local governments bring new businesses to their community, promote economic growth, and foster the creation of new jobs.

ACRE, located at 29 North Franklin Street, houses the "New Coonskin Library" which is a FREE lending Library using books that have been donated by residents of Amesville. Books are located on the front patio area of ACRE (East side of the building facing Franklin Street). This Micro Library houses about 1,000 books on topics ranging from gardening, history, travel, classics and modern fiction. Take a book any time. Return it when you can and donate other books if you want.

In addition to the library ACRE also hosts the "Amesville Micro Museum". This is a small display showing the importance of the Coonskin Library, Underground Railroad and local agriculture to Amesville. The original books from the Coonskin Library are housed either at the Ohio History Connection in Columbus or at the Ohio University Archives.

Athens County is the latest community enrolled in Community Energy Savers with a chance to be awarded over $100K (to help local libraries upgrade existing buildings) for increasing energy conservation among county residents. Amesville participated in 2013 and won funding for the solar panels on the Frank and Catherine Hare History Kiosk in Gifford park. You can spread the word by using the CES website as a starting point for participation. http://www.communityenergysavers.com/content/athens-county
