Specifications and Environment Effects
Specifications:
 | 3000 Watt Solar Power System |
 | 4500 kilowatt hour (KWH) yearly production |
 | Based on 110 Watt Solar panel
 | built by AstroPower (NASAQ:
APWR) |
 | 20 year warranty |
 | 3 volt to 18 volts depending on current draw |
 | 7 Amp max DC power at 16 volts |
 | 26" x 58" x 1.4", 27 pounds |
|
 | 30 solar panels, grouped by 3's, using 310 sft of roof
|
 | 48 volt DC to 125 volt AC Inverter
|
 | 85% to 90% efficiency of conversion from solar to AC power |
Environmental Effect:
 | The solar cells displace electricity that would normally come from electric power
plants. |
 | This 'saved' electricity avoids about three tons (6000 pounds) of CO2
emissions yearly
 | It takes about 200 mature trees to remove this CO2 |
 | This is equivalent of driving 7500 average miles in a car. |
|
 | A quarter of all electricty in the US is used just for lighting. |
Installation
