"Under the Sun" Solar Blog
In ReVision Energy's solar blog, we discuss policy, incentives, news, technology and other issues surrounding renewable energy.
Live Solar ? ReVision Energy wants to know! For the month of August, post a photo to social media that speaks to the theme ‘Live Solar.” Make sure to tag us, and to use the hashtag #LiveSolar , and we’ll enter you into our ‘Live Solar Contest.’ ReVision Energy staff will choose THREE winners who will each receive a Goal Zero solar charging kit (http://www.goalzero.com/p/317/venture-30-solar-recharging-kit ). Not feeling social? You can also email photos to us at [email protected]
Specifics:
Our goal is to show off what a solar-powered lifestyle is like. Is it demonstrating to your kids how solar works on a daily basis? The financial freedom of solar panels? The pride of generating your own power? Running a home-based business off solar panels? Maybe it’s seeing the excitement of receiving that first $12 electric bill come in the mail! Maybe it’s powering your home and your electric car with clean, renewable solar electricity.
The photo should try to capture not just solar panels, but what solar panels mean to you and your life.
The text that goes along with your social media post or email will be considered as part of the contest submission, so be creative and try to connect to a few different parts of your solar lifestyle!
Contest is open to all ReVision Energy customers, regardless of installed technology type or size of system.
Submissions open 8/1/2017 – 8/31/2017. Submissions will be accepted via Facebook, (https://business.facebook.com/revisionsolar/ ), Twitter (https://twitter.com/revisionsolar ), Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/revisionsolar/ ), and email: [email protected]
By emailing [email protected]
To be entered for the contest via social, media photos must 1) ‘tag’ ReVision Energy (using the ‘@’ symbol and the identity mentioned above) and 2) using the hashtag, #LiveSolar. All email photos are automatically entered into the contest.
If you submit multiple photos (assuming they are meaningfully different from each other) then each photo will count as an entry in the contest, assuming you also meet the other requirements.
Internal judges at ReVision Energy will choose five winners based on 1) quality of photo, 2) photos matching the contest theme.
Winners will be notified via the channel they submit; if on social media, via a direct message on the respective channel, or else via email. Winners will be announced in our September 2017 newsletter.
