CNet News writer, Daniel Terdiman, posted an article about Black Rock Solar’s continued efforts to put its power where its mouth is and continue to give back to the local community schools and other rural folks in need.

Burning Man backs solar-power project for Nevada towns

At a ribbon-cutting ceremony Tuesday in Gerlach, Nev., members of the Burning Man community are expected to demonstrate that they mean what they say when they say they try to leave places in better shape than when they found it.

That’s because, at the ribbon cutting, a new Burning Man-supported nonprofit called Black Rock Solar plans to publicly unveil its plan for bringing no- or low-cost solar power to public institutions in disadvantaged or financially depressed communities in Nevada and beyond.

See previous post concerning Black Rock Solar’s recent completion of an array for a local hospital, with savings adding up to $20,000 over the coming year.
