(GUELPH – Friday, January 21, 2011) Ethosolar is privileged to be the only green energy company to be a platinum sponsor at this year’s Farm $mart Agricultural Conference and trade show held on Saturday, January 22 in Rozanski Hall at the University of Guelph.
“This is an important year for green energy in farming as farmers have shown to be the most innovative group across Ontario in terms of adapting to the government’s Green Energy Act and implementing alternative energy solutions on their properties,” said Ken Rounds, who operates a family farm and solar panel installation company out of Barrie, Ontario. “No one anticipated agriculture jumping on the bandwagon so fast. Farmers are smart business people and they are surprising everybody.”
Ethosolar will have a booth as well as introduce key speakers at three of the conference’s educational sessions held throughout the weekend:
1. 2010 Year in review – 9:00am, Room 2
2. Farm Succession- Do’s Don’ts and Maybe’s – 12:15pm, Room 2
3. Opportunities and Challenges for On-Farm Green Energy – 3:40pm, Room 4
“Part of our role this weekend is to continue to equip farmers with the knowledge and opportunities for their business when investing in green energy. We’re committed to assisting them make wise choices when choosing projects that have a 20 or 30 year lifetime,” he said. “Farmers still have so many questions and we’re here to help de-mystify the process as much as we can.”
