Q&A: Celia Salgado, Energy $mart Communities Program Assistant at Solar One
Posted By Christina Jelski
A nonprofit green energy, arts, and education center founded in 2004, Solar One seeks to promote sustainable energy in New York City, offering a variety of community events. Since joining the organization in 2009, Celia Salgado has transitioned from a career in real estate into a role as the NYSERDA Energy $mart program assistant, helping to promote and organize programs such as Solar One's "Green from the Inside Out" events, which target co-op and condo owners throughout the city. She is also involved with circulating information about energy efficiency, recycling, and composting programs to New York residents, and making sure that building owners and landlords are kept up-to-date on NYSERDA's money-saving incentives. MGB spoke to Salgado about her work, how community members can get involved, and what Solar One has planned for the future. To find out more about upcoming Solar One events, visit solar1.org.
