Solarpunk & DERs: 10/19 Dinner
This is the first dinner in a three-month experiment bringing together people interested in energy, DERs, solarpunk, and the broader challenges facing our energy system. The goal is to share projects, meet people working on similar questions, and make space for open discussion.
