    SolarCity, a solar installation and service company inspiring
communities to take charge of their energy needs, welcomes Menlo Park
residents to a community meeting on "greening" Menlo Park and the economic
and environmental benefits of household and commercial solar power.
    Menlo Park Mayor Kelly Fergusson will kick off the meetings and discuss
the alignment of SolarCity's concepts with the City Council's environmental
stewardship goals. Strategies will be discussed identifying ways the
community can cut residential and commercial greenhouse gas emissions
consistent with Kyoto protocols.
    Also, SolarCity's CEO Lyndon Rive will discuss how solar power provides
a simple solution to help reduce carbon emissions and generate clean
energy, and announce a special Menlo Park group incentive for solar
packages.
    The Menlo Park collective power initiative aims to deliver at least
175kW of solar power between the city's residential and commercial
customers. Thanks to group purchasing power, Menlo Park residents will have
the opportunity to save 30% over typical solar installation and service
costs if they register for service between now and April 30, 2007. In
addition, one of the first 30 Menlo Park collective power customers will
receive an additional $5,000 discount on the cost of their new system.
    All interested attendees will receive complimentary follow-up home
solar evaluations on request.
