We are looking into some options because Maryland has a tax credit if you do certain things solar but what I want to do isn't covered under the grant so I've been slow to implement since its all coming out of my pocket. We are starting with a solar powered tankless hot water heater with battery/electric backup (I'm told by local solar power companies, I'm the first who wants the tie the two together).
I'm also waiting for the power company to find out if I can get money back if I have more battery power then I need and backfeed it into the consumption of other people in my grid. Saw this done out west and it could happen to us like when I go on vacation and batteries can only hold so much without discharge. -----Original Message----- From: Scott Stewart [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, November 14, 2008 9:19 AM To: cf-community Subject: Solar Electricity Is anyone using solar technology to power their home, in lieu of shelling out to a big electricity conglomerate? -- Scott Stewart ColdFusion Developer Office of Research Information Systems Research & Economic Development University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Phone:(919)843-2408 Fax: (919)962-3600 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:280363 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
