We've gone solar!

Our meter is spinning backwards! That was pretty cool to see once the breaker went on and we were plugged into the Sun - earths natural renewable energy!
We are excited to hook up our router so we'll be able to see real time energy savings through a computer program any time of day. Now we'll be able to really focus on what's taking the most energy. We already know our hot water heater - which will be next on our list to move to a solar water heater. The space on the
front of the house roof is reserved for the Solar water heater. As you can see we have quite the electrical set up on the side of our house now.
