Expertise

I am knowledgeable about residential solar pool heating, moderately knowledgeable about residential solar electric systems, and can resource answers in solar hot water and battery back up PV systems, but personally have little experience. I review questions when I get a chance During the PEAK SOLAR SEASON (May - September) , my replies will be delayed as I am usually working 60+ hours a week.

Experience in the area

Solar pool heating and solar electric systems

Education/Credentials

BA in Psychology which has nothing to do with solar. Various trainings and presentations on solar and 8 years experience.

What do you like about this subject?

I feel it is one of the keys to the survival of human civilization in this day and age of mass resource consumption.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?

My goal is to build a self sustained living community, with solar passive and active designs, wind power, rain collection, natural grey water filtering, and human waste composting.
