The 7th Annual SolarFest July 16-17 will be bigger and better with a move to Shoreline Community College,  Sierra Nevada’s sustainably made beer in the beer garden and the special opening night keynote speaker Marcelo da Luz, builder of a world record setting solar car.

Keynote Speaker Marcelo da Luz -“Solar Goes a Long Way”- The Power of One Solar Car Project 

In the spring of 1999, Marcelo da Luz had a dream: to create and build a solar car that would set world distance records.  In the process of building his solar car, supporters from 24 countries joined the project making his solar car one of the most international solar projects today. 
Since then, Marcelo and the Power of One (Xof1) project team continue to break world records to include traveling 22,000 miles through America and Canada with the power of the sun.

SolarFest, Saturday July 17th 10AM–8PM, Shoreline Community College West Parking lot, 
SolarFest is Free, Parking $2.00, walking, biking, and public transportation is encouraged

-Transportation Zone with alternative fuel vehicles and electric cars

The Fair began in 2004 to celebrate the first Solar Installation on a public school in Shoreline and to help people make informed decisions regarding their use of resources including energy, transportation, and food.  Showcased are organizations and business that apply concepts of conservation and sustainability in their business models and practices. This is the longest running event of its kind in the Puget Sound Region.
