Due to public demand, the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power canceled a single public meeting about its solar energy programs and replaced it with four workshops, the utility announced today. Thursday’s 2 p.m. meeting at DWP headquarters downtown was canceled and expanded into two, and two more will be held Friday.
All four will be at the DWP headquarters, 111 N. Hope St., in the A-level auditorium. Each workshop will focus on the DWP’s incentive program for installing solar panels and a proposed “feed-in tariff” program meant to spur the use of renewable energy. Attendance will be limited to 125 people per meeting, and reservations will be required. Anyone who reserved a spot for the original meeting will need to RSVP again via the DWP’s web site.
The first meeting is set for 9 a.m. Thursday July 14, 2011 and expected to wrap up about noon. The second meeting starts at 2 p.m Thursday July 14, 2011. On Friday July 15, 2011, the first meeting will be held at 9 a.m., and the final workshop will start at 2 p.m.
