*'''February 2007:''' The third national solar energy conference was held in February in the city of Guichon, Paysandú. Sponsored by the [[Uruguayan Center of Appropriate Technologies]] (CEUTA), delegates attended from all departments in the country. Also attending were representatives of the National Bureau for the Environment (DINAMA), U.N. Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), and the municipal government of Paysandú. Solar cookers were on display in Plaza Williman, where they could be seen by the general public. The city of Guichon was the site of a workshop on construction and use of solar cookers in 2004. Out of that gathering has grown the national solar conferences. The fourth national conference will be held early in 2008. '''''Contact:''''' [[Juan José Oña]]
