Glad Tidings Energy HubTHE DESIGN OF THE CLEAN ENERGY HUB WAS EXTERNALLY LED BY GREEN THECHURCH AND GEMINI ENERGY SOLUTIONS

Wade Harper, MBA WadeHarper currently serves as the CEO of Glad TidingsCommunity Development Corporation. He is responsible forassisting in the implementation of a COVID-19 testing site,popup vaccination clinics and an Emergency RentalAssistance Programs. Wade is the lead for the Energy Hub. Wadeis 25-year retired police lieutenant. He also servedas the first African American mayor for the City of Antioch,CA. Wade received his Bachelor of Arts Degree from PattenUniversity and was honored as Student of the Year in hismajor – Pastoral Studies. He also received his Master ofBusiness Administration and was honored as Alumni of theYear from John F. Kennedy University’s School ofManagement.

GLAD TIDINGS CLEAN ENERGY HUB Glad Tidings Church was founded in April of 1978 in Hayward, CA byBishop and Mrs. J. W. Macklin. Glad Tidings Community Development Corporation was founded in Juneof 1992. In his book The Canvas of Tomorrow, Bishop Macklin describeshow under his leadership Glad Tidings brought a neighborhood frompoverty, blight, and drug dealing and changed the neighborhood into athriving neighborhood. We are excited about the plan to lead our community to energyefficiency We are currently building our GTI Life Center. We plan to have classes onEnergy Efficiency.

GLAD TIDINGS CLEAN ENERGY HUB Glad Tidings Community Development Corporation (GTCDC) is a nonprofit based in Hayward, CA. GTCDC’s Mission is to preserve, strengthen,and empower our families, households, residents and community byincreasing economic development; promoting safe and healthyneighborhoods, providing high-quality and well-maintained affordablehousing and encouraging healthy lifestyles.

Expand The Way WeServe

Benefits Our church is estimated to save approximately 29,000 per year in energybills, all while completely removing all gas from the property Reducing on-site pollution Eliminating the risk of gas leaks or explosions This includes replacing hot water heaters, HVAC Systems, kitchenequipment, and installing LED lights We have designed, thanks to Optimal Tech a 668 kW solar array across theroofs and parking lots of our campus which will produce enough energy topower roughly 95 homes for an entire year.

Savings We are investigating how our extra power can be used to reach thesurrounding buildings We will be installing ten bi-direction EV charging stations on the northcampus and four DC fast charging stations on the south campus. Allprovided by OpConnect

This will serve three purposes Provide much needed electric charging infrastructure for community memberswho want to purchase an electric vehicle. Provide resilience for our buildings as the electric vehicles we are looking topurchase will be used as batteries providing power to buildings duringemergencies. Provide revenue generation for the church to expand our community focusedactivities We will have four stationary batteries as well to ensure constant and available backup power Bi-directional charging is still a new technology; however, there are two additionalexciting and uncommon aspects of this project. 1. We will own the solar andcharging stations.

What Does This Mean We will be receiving the full benefit of this clan energy hub immediately. All of the companies responsible for the design and implementation areBlack owned.

First Phase of Implementation We will be starting the first phase of implementation this Fall. We will have the clean energy hub completed at the end of Spring 2023 We will involve the community by keeping them involved and educatethem on Energy Efficiency as well as our progress. We also see the clean energy hub as an opportunity for workforcedevelopment and are looking for partners
