Solar Power
Tuesday, August 25: Solar Power: Capturing the Issues
Sponsor: Wilson Sonsini Goodrich Rosati
In California, solar is one of several alternative energy sources. Many consumers and businesses are considering this clean technology. But these aren’t your parent’s solar systems. Now there are many ways to harvest the sun, of which these three are best known: through the use of passive solar energy; with a solar electric system, also known as a photovoltaic system; or with a solar thermal system.

CleanTALK San Diego’s hour long panel will feature local experts revealing the breadth of solar options and debating the pros & cons, facts & myths which abound today on the topic of solar energy sources.
Areas of focus:
- Alternative Applications (solar powered trash cans, bus stops, etc.)
- Emerging Technologies
- Future Trends (will there be a Moores law for photovoltaic cells?)
- ROI and the Economics (cost, rebates, incentives, etc.)
Panelist: Jon Warren Lentz (moderator), Richard Caputo, Don Christiansen, Jon Fortune, Walter Wang
