Renewable - Solar Demonstration Project

Demonstration Overview |
 |
|
With a growing interest in renewable energy, many CVEC members have considered installing a photovoltaic or solar energy generation system. |
|
|
With installation completed, the CVEC solar system started generating electricity on April 13, 2010. Typically, the system gets rolling around 10 AM and may keep producing energy up until dinner on sunny summer days. |
|
|
Notice that the system never operates at the full 2 kw capacity and fluctuates dramatically with the weather. During a good hour, the system is replacing about 15¢ worth of electric service at 2010 rates. |
