Yes, you read that headline correctly: I am going solar for the fourth time. I just signed a contract with...
I have a dream, a dream of being mostly off-grid and self-reliant while also remaining on the electric grid. That...
Six months ago, the HOA community that I live in, Highline Crossing Cohousing Community in Littleton, Colo. went online with 19.6 worth of solar on our so-called Common House and on some of our shared garages here. I worked with other residents for 18 months to persuade residents to go solar, not an easy task in a community of 40 residents where 90% of the households have to vote in favor of a measure in order for it to pass. Yes, that is the "cohousing" ethic/approach -- cohousing is a form of living that is deliberately extra community-based and community-focuses.
Few things are as satisfying as knowing that your own, local rooftop solar system is actively, and 100% filling up the battery of electric vehicle!
To the right-wing folks who are INCORRECTLY claiming greening the grid caused the power outages in Texas: YOU ARE WRONG!
Charging your EV with home solar is a three-step process ==>
1) Install a solar system on your home.
2) Buy an EV or PHEV.
3) Plug it in.
