1 hour
20 US dollars

Description

Ever wondered what it would be like to be your own power generator and to live completely off-grid? We invite you to come learn about our 5 kW solar-powered system complete with battery bank and off-grid specific generator. During this 1 hour tour we will discuss the benefits and challenges of living on seasonal energy in a northern climate as well as the steps we took when designing and building our passive-solar, super insulated home.
