Black Residence, 3 KW, Lilliwaup, 2012

Black Residence, 3 KW, Lilliwaup, 2012

The Black array consists of 15 Silicon Energy 200 watt modules and a 3840 watt inverter. The array is mounted to cement forms and 1-1/2″ galvanized steel tubing for maximum strength and safety.

Kaye Residence, 4.29 KW, Sequim, 2011

Kaye Residence, 4.29 KW, Sequim, 2011

KAYE WEB CLOSE UPRichard and Pam built their new energy efficient home with solar in mind and we are maximizing their investment with made in WA solar modules. The 4.29 KW solar array is mounted on their garage ADU and the house features SIP panels for maximum insulation, a heat recapture ventilation system, and an energy efficient ductless heat pump.

Wieseman Residence, 3.96 KW, Sequim, 2011

Wieseman Residence, 3.96 KW, Sequim, 2011

3.96 KW grid tied solar array consisting of 18 Sanyo 220 watt solar modules and 18 Enphase 210 watt microinverters. The microinverters reduce the shading impacts from the two mature deciduous trees flanking the house.

McMahon Residence, 2.66 KW, Port Angeles 2011

McMahon Residence, 2.66 KW, Port Angeles 2011

2.66 KW solar array consisting of 14 Silicon Energy 190 watt solar modules mounted on the south roof. The Silicon Energy inverter is rated at 4.2 KW and had two DC inputs allowing additional solar modules to be placed on theĀ east roof in the future. the McMahon’s plan to purchase a plug-in electric vehicle and their type II 240 V car charger visible at the corner of the garage.

Jefferson Solar Group Community Solar Array, 16.72 KW, Port Townsend, 2011

Jefferson Solar Group Community Solar Array, 16.72 KW, Port Townsend, 2011

This 16.72 KW community solar array is located at the Jefferson International Airport. The solar array consists of 88 Silicon Energy 190 watt modules and four 4.2 KW Silicon Energy inverters. The solar array feeds power to the airport’s navigational beacon, landing lights, and offsets power used by the Spruce Goose restaurant. The solar array is owned by local investors and is located on property leased from the Port of Port Townsend.

Barton Residence, 9.45 KW, Sequim, 2010

Barton Residence, 9.45 KW, Sequim, 2010

This 9.45 KW SunPower array is one of the largest solar PV systems in Clallam County. The all black 210 watt SunPower modules feed power to a Fronius 10,000 watt inverter. The savings on the monthly electrical bill plus that annual production incentive payment will offset more than 100% of the Barton’s annual electrical bill, so energy will be a net income source, not a net expense!

Sanders Residence, 6.6KW, Sequim, 2010

Sanders Residence, 6.6KW, Sequim, 2010

Bob and Marcia pose in front of their 6.9 KW SunPower solar array mounted on a shed containing their well. The Sander’s home was too shady to make the solar array effective and frequent presence of elk in their pasture made a ground mounted array not feasible. This array is 550 feet from the house (a new record trench length for Power Trip Energy) and the array was designed to extend beyond the top and bottom roof surfaces to maximize system size.
