Three solar experts who think about these issues shared their thoughts in an hourlong webinar on Monday as part of the virtual Pennsylvania Farm Show.
The panelists were Amanda Eyer of the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection, Tom Murphy of Penn Stateâs Marcellus Center for Outreach and Research, and Dave Hartman of Penn State Extension.
