Renewable House on Video

This Renewable House LogoA home video version of This Renewable House is available as a free video rental, and is offered for sale by the American Solar Energy Society (http://www.ases.org/). The program originally aired across California on public television (PBS) stations. The home video is an extended version of the PBS program. Using a format similar to the popular PBS series This Old House, the video covers a variety of topics for home or building owners interested in installing solar electric systems.

The video includes perspectives from a variety of contractors, home owners and building owners that have installed and lived with solar and wind energy.

Topics covered include: how to determine if solar or wind energy is right for you, how the technologies work, purchase incentives available, tips for selecting a contractor, and what to expect before, during and after your installation.

Free rental is also available through Wherehouse Music (http://www.wherehouse.com/) and Bradley Video stores (http://www.bradleyvideo.com/).

Check http://www.calenergy.org/ for a complete listing of PBS air times, a list of video rental stores carrying the video, and details on how to purchase the home video. For more information contact Scott Cronk, executive producer, at (707) 546-6919 or scott@calenergy.org; or visit http://www.calenergy.org/.
