“Encouraging the installation of solar systems on residential and business buildings is at the core of municipal activities, and accordingly, the Authority will soon lead another purchasing group to install solar systems on residential and business roofs – for the benefit of strengthening the community, reducing urban emissions to which the Authority is committed, and preserving nature and open spaces around the city,” said the Ministry of Energy. “Joining the purchasing group is free of charge and the service and support are funded by the Municipality for the benefit of residents and business owners.”
