What I appreciate even more is the chance that everyone gets to see the solar panels at these sites and we all become not only used to these, but ask why they are not part of other school-like public places. Okay, you ask where? My first response is the public library, and the YMCA, the city pool, the post office... I also appreciate how easy the math can be with 1kW solar structures and the availability. This is some powerful learning going on! (Sorry, no pun intended!) I look forward to more of your blogging!
