Viridian proudly launched the Green Energy Observer in our November issue of VLife, delivered to your inbox on Monday.
The GEO is the first of its kind in the industry: the only publication that observes the industry intersection of deregulation, renewable energy development and economics, and global sustainability.
The report is written for Associates, customers, stakeholders and industry peers. It’s available for free download and is also now for sale in print on ShopViridian.com. It’s a great tool for you to show potential new customers and Associates, and is already receiving attention in the industry.

 Viridian honors Veterans
Today is an important day to thank, honor and remember all the men and women who have served our country. You may not always realize it, but simply by choosing local, renewable energy you are doing your part in decreasing our dependence on foreign fuel, a dependence which has led to ongoing conflict that places our troops at risk.
In honor of Veteran’s Day, we are donating to the Wounded Warriors Project on our Facebook page, so if you want to do more, simply “like” us and we’ll add another dollar to our donation. Spread the status to increase our support for wounded veterans.
