Green Roofs for Healthy Cities is pleased to launch a virtual symposium on the Integration of Solar Panels with Green Roofs. This event will take place on February 15, 2024 from 1-4pm est. This symposium aims to dispel the notion that one must choose between sustainability and energy efficiency by showcasing the manifold benefits of integrating solar solutions with green roofing.

In recent years, the global push towards sustainable practices has spurred innovation in both solar energy and green roof technologies. The Solar and Green Roof Integration Virtual Symposium will serve as a platform for experts, thought leaders, and enthusiasts to delve into the synergies that arise when these two eco-friendly solutions are harmoniously combined.
