Solar Ann Arbor a Plan for Action Acknowldgements MARCH 2010 SOLAR ANN ARBOR A PLAN FOR ACTION ACKNOWLDGEMENTS Funding for this project was provided by the U.S. Department of Energy. This Solar Plan was written in 2009, and published in March 2010 by Clean Energy Coalition authors Lisa Dugdale, Robyn Skodzinsky, and Greg Vendena. Additional writing and research was completed by Clean Energy Coalition volunteers Anika Fassia, Parvathi Krishna Kumar, and Matt Miller. Cover design was done by Invisible Engines. ABOUT THE U.S. DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY’S SOLAR AMERICA CITIES PARTNERSHIP The U.S. Department of Energy Solar America Cities partnership supports 25 U.S. cities com- mitted to making solar a mainstream energy source. DOE provides financial and technical as- sistance to expand innovative efforts to accelerate the adoption of solar energy technolo- gies. Cities, the nation’s centers of electricity consumption, are uniquely positioned to re- duce global climate change, strengthen America’s energy independence, and improve air qua- lity by converting to solar energy sources. From installing solar on city facilities to up- dating zoning codes and permitting processes to providing financial incentives, Solar America Cities demonstrate comprehensive, city-wide approaches that encourage and facili- tate solar as a viable energy solution for residents and businesses. Visit Solar America cities on- line at www.solaramericacities.energy.gov. ABOUT THE ANN ARBOR SOLAR CITIES PARTNERSHIP The Ann Arbor Solar Cities Partnership (SCP) is an extensive collaboration between nearly two- dozen organizations, formed to implement the Solar America Cities project. Partners include the City of Ann Arbor Energy Office, Clean Energy Coalition, Great Lakes Renewable Energy Associa- tion, Ann Arbor Hands-On Museum, Ann Arbor Office of Community Development, City of Ann Arbor Office of Emergency Management, University of Michigan’s Memorial Phoenix Energy Institute, NextEnergy, Ann Arbor Downtown Development Authority, Ann Arbor District Library, Pfizer, Ecology Center, Ann Arbor Energy Commission, Washtenaw County Government, DTE Energy, State of Michigan Energy Office, Michigan Economic Development Corporation, Michi- gan Department of Environmental Quality, Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm, United Solar Ovonics, and the University of Michigan Taubman College of Architecture & Urban Planning.

You will be discussing and developing consensus with fellow Arizonans on the future of energy in Arizona. An essential element to the success of these consensus-driven discussions is this background report that is provided to all participants before the Town Hall convenes. As they have so often done for past Arizona Town Halls, Arizona State University has prepared a detailed and informative report that will provide a unique and unparalleled resource for your Town Hall panel sessions. Special thanks go to editors Clark Miller and Sharlissa Moore of the Consortium for Science, Policy, and Outcomes at ASU for spearheading this effort and marshaling many talented professionals to write individual chapters. For sharing their wealth of knowledge and professional talents, our thanks go to the many authors who contributed to the report. Our deepest gratitude also goes to University Vice President and Dean of the College of Public Programs for ASU, Debra Friedman, and Director of the School of Public Affairs for ASU, Jonathan Koppell, who made great efforts to ensure that ASU could provide this type of resource to Arizona.
