American Solar Energy Society, National Solar Tour

The National Solar Tour is the largest grassroots solar event in history, due to the efforts of local communities who organize events throughout the country. This annual event offers participants the opportunity to tour homes and buildings to see how neighbors are using solar energy, energy efficiency, and other sustainable technologies to reduce their monthly utility bills and help tackle climate change. Last year, close to 140,000 attendees visited some 5,000 buildings in 3,000 participating communities. This event is held on the first Saturday in October, in conjunction with National Energy Awareness Month. The project's website offers tips, best practices, and media resources for organizing a solar tour.
