Tennessee 太阳能协会成为非盈利机构

TSEA（Tennessee 太阳能协会），是官方承认的非盈利机构，在田纳西大学的纳克斯维尔法学院的帮助下，经过长期的过程后，于2009年7月4日建立。

TSEA现在能够得到政府津贴，并且作为一个非盈利慈善机构，捐赠给该机构的资金都被认为是可扣除的税款。这个组织将吸引新的对太阳能支持的公司前来报道。

TSEA计划向大众展示太阳能科技，并出版期刊去加强州政府对太阳能的重视，创建一个潜在州范围内太阳能地点的数据库，在潜在的太阳能投资上进行经济研究。

The Tennessee Solar Energy Association (TSEA) has gained official recognition as a not-for-profit entity. The organization was founded on July 4, 2009 and says it has since been in the lengthy process of achieving this status with help from the Knoxville College of Law at the University of Tennessee.

With this news, TSEA can now receive grant funding and is considered a charitable organization; any donations made to the organization are now considered tax deductible.  This will likely attract new members throughout the state of Tennessee who wish to show their support for adoption of more solar
power, according to the organization.

In addition to running the upcoming Knoxville Solar Tour, sponsored by the American Solar Energy Society, TSEA plans to provide public demonstrations of solar technology, publish a periodical to highlight state-wide initiatives to increase solar power, create a database of potential solar sites across the state, and perform an economic study on the investment potential in solar energy.
