Solar Panel Project

<< Previous (Wind Turbine Project) | Next (Courtyard) >>

Local energy experts consulted with the students and maintenance workers to install this bank of photovoltaic solar panels.  The funding was possible from a Toyota Tapestry grant won by the students in 1997.  The location is on the roof, just above the Environmental Science classroom, and the electrical energy powers aquariums, overhead pojectors, television monitors, computers, radios, and fans.
