Trinity St. Peter's Solar Celebration
As the West Coast’s oldest Episcopal church, Trinity St. Peter’s is powering its next century of service with a new 19 kW solar array.
This project, completed in partnership with RE-volv and California Interfaith Power & Light (CIPL), allows the church to serve San Francisco with clean, local energy while honoring its commitment to stewardship.
Transitioning to solar will save the church an estimated $261,000 in energy costs over time that they will redirect into vital food programs, community cleanups, and local ministries.
The celebration will include:
Short reflections from local faith and community leaders, including special guest Lavanya Deepak, Senior Racial Equity Coordinator for the San Francisco Environment Department
A ribbon-cutting ceremony
Light refreshments
Solar education booths & networking
We hope to see you there!
