Suburban Power Plant |
In this 5600
sq ft residence we sold clients a 6.2
KW PV (Solar Electric) grid tied system, which now produces anywhere from 64% to 76.5% of total energy needs for a family of 5. The home is located in the 4 Mile Creek Neighborhood of Boulder, CO. Average yearly electric bills were $1428.00 per year before the system was installed and are now at $300 or lower per year. The home was placed on the market just 3 weeks ago and is now under contract. Nice homes with suburban power plants are popular in this market.
14,388 kW hours were used yearly before the system was installed with the lowest reading over the last 4 years standing at 3,391kW hrs used. Not bad numbers for a home this size. With a bit more energy efficiency tweaking, such as installing "led" light fixtures, buying a new energy star refrigerator, a net zero home is entirely possible.
