School budget money being wasted on the solar garden

UPDATE Mar. 2018  SD 58 Somebody finally gets it  .it was deemed that the project didn’t make sense from an economic point of view.


Somebody from SD8 Nelson who doesn't know what they are doing, is wasting education dollars on buying some of these Nelson community solar garden panels.
To summarize this blog entry:  The real cost for a solar panel will be closer to $1500, not the pretend $900 that everyone subsidizes.  Our own dam will make for $5 what this $1500 solar panel will make in a year.  Not only that, the solar garden isn't green power.  Read my blog "Give Yourself a Big Green Hug"

                 SD8 has lent credibility to likely the most absurd greenwashing project in Canada!

UPDATE:  AT this evenings city budget meeting 2016/02/18  I asked Alex Love manager of Nelson Hydro what makes the solar garden green, his reply "its isn't green, no one said it was green"????  And all this time I thought people were throwing their money at this loser because it was green??  So why would anyone throw away their money for this project which makes no power worth anything!  In one year it makes the same power our dam makes for $700, its a $300,000 project that won't last 20 years?

Did anyone ask how the several years of  solar demonstration system data  from the LVR high school might look in terms of economics, they need to do this again?


Below is data from 2 Nelson solar systems and a Nakusp School system

Solar power seems to cause normal intelligent people to lose all their common sense.



I have emailed the person involved asking for a phone call, and asking that my(our) public dollars be withdrawn from this phony project!  No return call as of yet.
UPDATE:  I received an email response, this was approved by Administration and Trustees.


Ask for our  public education dollars back, I have....

Contact city council and the mayor
