Photovoltaic Panels to generate electricity Six “banks” total 6.6kW = home requirement

Cost $51,000 - $15,000 Energy Trust of OR -$12,000 OR Tax Credit - $12,000 Fed. Tax Credit = $12,000 out of pocket. Note Metal Roof. Required For Rain Water Collection

Solar Collectors for Hot Water Each 3’ X 7’ Two systems like this, total cost for both systems about $1,500 4 hrs of sun = 50 gal of H 2 O

Rainwater Collection

Getting Rainwater to the sump

55 gallon “sump”→ Float Switch Controlled pump→ ←Overflow To street ↖Inflow ←from roof

Two 1550 gallon tanks Filler line→. ←Overflow line Outflow line ↑
