  • Newbie to solar May 29, 2023
    Hi all, We recently installed geothermal in our new old home in Connecticut and are now moving on to researching Solar.

  • I'm thinking of installing a ground-based system where the panels might not all be in the same location or orientation. Can I get some advice? May 29, 2023
    I want to install my panels on separated "walls" in the garden. Here are my criteria: they could be oriented separately between SSE and SSW (more towards the latter) some will be partially shaded some might be 30m from the station I need battery storage where I'll switch to battery if a) it's over some […]

  • Debt ceiling deal: no changes to solar May 29, 2023
    I know it had been batted around that some GOP had wanted to roll back some IRA2022 rules that might have impacted solar. No changes were made that impact solar in the agreement... That still needs passed. submitted by /u/Solarinfoman [link] [comments]
