Still Going Strong

This 2,870-watt system has 14 Evergreen panels of 205 watts each. Panel strength and efficiency continues on an upward trend since this system was installed in 2009, but regardless of age, solar panels continue to produce lots of energy, as evidenced by testing of older panels.

Reliable Savings

March 4, 2016

Two hip roof faces on the main house and a low gable roof on an annex were all used to accommodate 21 SunPower panels on this house. Three panels + 10 + 8.  But do the savings add up? They do: The system will produce more than $40,000 worth of electricity over 25 years — […]

The solar electric system adorning this contemporary Colonial style house has 15 Sanyo 215-watt panels, and Enphase M210 micro-inverters.
