Toutle Lake High School is the first high school in Cowlitz county to receive a solar panel courtesy of Cowlitz County PUD.

The 1.1-kilowatt solar-electric project is designed to do more than generate electricity. As a learning tool, the solar system introduces students to renewable energy technology and provides them with an opportunity to explore global energy issues in an interactive, hands-on way. The web-based data monitoring system that accompanies the installation allows students to monitor real-time system performance and to download historical data for presentation and analysis. An interactive touch-screen kiosk inside the school displays live system data and information about conservation and other renewable energy sources.

As a participant in the Solar 4R Schools program, Toutle Lake High School students and teachers have committed to undertaking a variety of educational endeavors, including incorporating the Solar 4R Schools classroom exercises into the existing curriculum at the school.
