Buildings Powered by the Sun
According to the latest article available online from the Renewable
Energy Program at the California Energy Commission, "The demand
for solar technology is on the rise. A recent report from the California
Energy Commission (CEC) indicates that more than 50% of homeowners
surveyed would pay more for a home already equipped with a solar
or wind energy system. Homebuilders are incorporating solar photovoltaics
(PV) into new construction and commercial property owners are increasingly
adopting solar energy systems to manage energy demand and help offset
the rising electricity costs. So, what are the financial and environmental
benefits of using the power of the sun?"
