This workshop is for the solar curious and the experienced solar power user. We will cover the basics of residential sized, grid tied photovoltaic solar systems. After a brief overview of how the solar modules convert solar energy into electricity, we will cover the basics of designing a system. This will include determining costs, intertie requirements, inverters, and placement of the solar modules.

It's a BIG deal to move a 705-ton pile of bricks down the middle of the street, even if the final destination is only a few blocks away. Several months ago, Mike Kinter of Kinter Construction oversaw just such a project when the historic Murillo Apartments and Henshie-Briggs Row House were picked up off their foundations and moved to new locations in the Sherman Hill neighborhood.

The September meeting is canceled due to scheduling difficulties. Please mark your calendars for the October meeting.
