New TEP Solar Installation Expected Late 2020

Earlier this month, Cooper Director Colin Waite hosted Wendy Erica Werden and Ted Burhans to celebrate Tucson Electric Power's $25,000 award to revitalize the solar energy system at Camp Cooper.

"We look forward to working with the learning center staff to develop a system that supports Camp Cooper’s mission and helps introduce students to the kind of sustainable energy systems that generate an ever-increasing share of the power we provide our community,”
