38. T'Sou-ke First Nation: Using solar energy to strive for net-zero

The T'Souke First Nation on Vancouver Island developed and implemented a plan that saw them slash 75 per cent of their energy use and install a bunch of solar photovoltaic to fill in the rest. It turns out it's a lot easier to go net-zero when you drastically cut your energy use.
And while they're not yet net-zero net the results this small First Nation of 250 people about 45 minutes southwest of Victoria have achieved have been very impressive. Learn how they did and how they got the community behind it in this week's episode of Green Energy Futures.
