REA is pleased to
announced that an MOU has just been executed
between REA and Solar Energy International one
of the premier sustainable energy organizations
in the US. Interestingly, Larry Bardouille of
Dominica is now a student there. I had
introduced Larry to Ben Uyeda and Jordan Goldman
of Independence Energy Homes (the corporate
derivative of the award winning 2006 Solar
Decathlon Cornell University team) during their
April 2006 site visit to Dominica. He explained
his plans to soon study solar in the US not
knowing he was in discussion with our future
partner! Small world.
With this competence
on our side we can train interested persons in
the urban and rural areas of the US, to
include our members and affiliates in Dominica
and internationally.
http://www.solarenergy.org/ will allow us to
build competence where we need it and train the
human resource we need to accomplish our goals.
All members with potential projects or
trainee candidates, take note and contact us.
We should encourage young persons to seriously
consider training in the area of sustainable
energy and promote its inclusion in the school
curriculum at senior high school and college
level.
Let us commend
Yasmin Noel of our law firm affiliate for her
unswerving efforts to get this alliance
formalized and her negotiations of the MOU on
our behalf.
Sincerely yours,
Gabriel J.
Christian, Esq.
