GreeningRozzie is looking for ways to expand the number of homes and businesses in Roslindale with solar panels.
Our first step toward that effort is to count and map the solar installations that already exist. To that end, members of GreeningRozzie and other Rozzidents have been walking the streets of our neighborhoods looking at the roofs and counting the number of solar panels that we see.
You might think that the City of Boston would have this information available. They did start collecting data on home solar installations, but their data is unfortunately many years out of date.
This is a great socially distanced activity and a way to familiarize yourself with your own area of Roslindale – and also areas that are not so familiar. We have a list of streets that have been tallied and more that need to be walked and counted.
Contact us if you'd like to get involved in helping with the Roslindale solar count by walking the streets of Roslindale.
