This week HALCO, a local home energy company is in the process of setting up our backyard Photovoltaic Array system. The 7.2KW/32 modules system will be mounted on two 10x20 foot towers. Our goal is to cancell out our annual net grid electrical usage. We have been working with HALCO engineers to design and submit a plan to NYSERTA for approval since October, 2009. The system should be set up by week's end and by mid-May with NYSEG's (New York State Electric & Gas) approval, we should be producing are our own electrical energy when the sun shines.
Stay tuned!
