Solar energy technologies have great potential to benefit our nation. They can diversify our energy supply, reduce our dependence on imported fuels, improve the quality of the air we breathe, offset greenhouse gas emissions, and stimulate our economy by creating jobs in the manufacturing and installation of solar energy systems. 

 

 

 

Programs

The Indiana Office of Energy Development has formed the Indiana Solar Energy Working Group (ISEWG).  The ISEWG is forming to promote and support the use of solar energy in indiana, as well as the growth of supply chain, manufacturing and solar power related commercial/undustrial efforts in Indiana,  ISEWG is open to anyone interested in solar power in Indiana.  The Inaugural meeting was held October 28, 2010 in Indianapolis.
