Solar Energy

Solar energy is king of the green home movement, the leading ticket to a totally self-sustaining home. Solar is involved in every aspect of a green home, from initial design to energy production. Common manifestations include solar electric systems, solar thermal hot water systems and south-facing windows (for passive solar heat in winter). There are a wealth of benefits and products associated with going solar.
