Morgan,

Doug and I had an opportunity to debrief earlier today. We would like to get your read on next steps.

• What do you think of presenting Gies with a conceptual outline on what it would look like if they anchored Solar Farm 3.0, sufficient to achieve either net zero carbon or net zero energy?  We can frame both options.
• What do you suggest for next steps with regard to the ’solar capacity charge’?

Let us know how we can support the University on both fronts. We’d love to help these conversations move forward.

My goal would be to have something in place by the Wymer Hall dedication — January 2025. This would become a major part of the story.

I really feel like this is attainable and I hope that others will follow. I think that they will. As always, thank you for considering our ideas.

Thank you,

Chris
