Apr 21    Solar Home: Heating and Cooling from SunCommon
Background: Solar Home Heating and Cooling allows Vermonters to heat and cool their homes with clean, fossil-free energy at about 1/3 the cost of heating fuel.  Combing solar power with heat pump technology can reduce a home’s use of traditional heating fuels by as much as 80% and can cut heating bills by half.  Moreover, in the summer the system can be reversed and provide ultra-efficient air conditioning and dehumidifying.  Guilt-free cooling!

This workshop will cover the basics of solar power and heat pumps: how they fit into our state's energy plans, how the technologies work, what government incentives are available, how our "no upfront cost" program works, and more.
