Residential Solar Electric Systems

Feb 11, 2015

Steve will share his knowledge and experience with purchasing and installing a Solar Electric system. He purchased a ground mounted 7.3 kW Solar Electric system. It was installed last May and so far has produced nearly 7000 kWH of electricity. The system employs an individual micro-inverter for each solar panel (26 in total). The electric utility allows the surplus electricity to be "net-metered" crediting his utility account.
