Juan and Adriana Salazar's Habitat for Humanity home was built with efficiency in mind, and includes superior insulation and high-efficiency appliances and a 1.1 kW solar system will supply nearly 1/3 of the Salazar's annual electricity demand. Not only will this system lower the Salazar's monthly energy bill, and offset about 1,400 pounds of global warming (CO2) in the process, but it will also demonstrate that solar electric installations can function effectively, even in urban areas of the Pacific Northwest.
