WHAT: Solar One Green Energy, Arts and Education Center, represents a pioneering concept in New York City, providing visitors and residents with public programs about energy efficiency, renewable energy, green building and urban ecology. It is located on the East River between 23rd and 18th Streets in Stuyvesant Cove Park. Funds raised will support Solar One’s award winning environmental programs about public awareness, energy efficiency and conservation as well as educational study in the Park. NYC Department of Education and Solar One recently launched the Green Design Lab, a sustainability and environmental K-12 educational program in 30 New York City public schools. The students focus on greening their school building with hands on projects such as rooftop gardens, building performance and energy efficiency, air quality, waste conservation, schoolyard habitats and non-toxic cleaners

JIGAR SHAH
Jigar Shah is an entrepreneur and visionary committed to leveraging the next economy, which he has recognized as The Impact Economy™.

Today, he is CEO of Jigar Shah Consulting and a board member of the CWR. He works closely with some of the world's leading influencers and guides policy makers around the globe on key issues to implement solutions for global warming and sustainability that will unlock that next trillion dollar impact economy. During Shah's tenure, he was a trailblazer in helping build the organization into one of global importance. His was the Founder of SunEdison; today the world's leading solar services company.
