MIDDLEBORO — Sustainable Middleborough is putting on a free workshop about how solar panels can reduce electric bills on 11 a.m. Saturday, October 7 at the Middleboro public library.

An independent consultant, EnergySage, will provide free estimates at the workshop of how much solar panels cost and how much solar panels can reduce a specific household’s energy bills. Sustainable Middleborough president Kimberly French said that these estimates can help determine the costs and benefits of adding solar panels to a residence. The workshop will also discuss the potential tax benefits of using solar panels.
