A POWER-FUL GIFT TO FIRST PARISH CHURCH!
The gift of solar power has been given to First Parish Unitarian Universalist Church in Scituate by long-time members Frank & Leslie Kilduff.
44 Photovoltaic solar cells were recently installed on the roof of the church, located at 330 First Parish Road in Scituate. These cells will provide approximately 70% of the annual electricity needs of the church. The panels and current inverters were made in the USA, and installed by local workers through Munro Solar. The system will tie in through National Grid.
The gift was purchased through the Solarize Massachusetts initiative recently offered to the town through the efforts of Sustainable Scituate to promote local alternative energy. Scituate was one of four towns in Massachusetts to use this program.
By installing these solar panels, First Parish is promoting solar energy as a safe and environmentally friendly power source, reducing our reliance on nonrenewable fossil fuels, endorsing our UU principal of taking care of the earth, being environmentally responsible, providing employment opportunities for local workers and reducing electrical costs for our church. It will also reduce the greenhouse gases produced by First Parish by 172 tons of CO2, the equivalent of a medium car driving 312,000 miles!!
