Solar Oregon

Solar Oregon presents a free webinar that takes a deeper look at PV + Thermal.

Solar Oregon is presenting a Green Energy series - free talks for those interested in learning more about the technologies and design of zero energy buildings. Solar Oregon is a non-profit educational organization leading the way to a clean energy future. These one-hour seminars will explore solar, energy storage, and energy-efficient equipment and design. Envisioned as a follow-up to Solar Oregon’s popular Go Zero home tours, these online talks will encourage a deeper dive into the technology and allow for Q+A discussion contrasting options to aid in decision making. All webinars will be recorded and included on Solar Oregon’s YouTube channel.https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCN9no-FxCRHnICdU-tbb8Eg/featured Topic:Fifteen years ago, a packaged mechanical/electrical system branded “PVT” (standing for photovoltaic thermal) was developed by engineers in California. This system harvests heat from the photovoltaic panels for use in the home, while cooling the PV panels. One of the first PVT systems installed was on Doug Boleyn’s new home built in 2009. This talk will discuss the lessons learned from the more than 10 years that the system has been operating in a suburb of Portland, OR.Speaker Bio:Doug is a retired solar professional, having built his first solar (heated) house 50 years ago in 1974. Doug started his solar research and consulting career working at Portland General Electric for 20 years. He then formed his own consulting business, Cascade Solar Consulting, in 1998. After his Cascade Solar years, he worked several years as Commercial Solar Manager at Energy Trust of Oregon. He retired in 2012. In 2009, he built his second solar home in Happy Valley, where he lives with his wife, Emily. This event is free and open to everyone.RSVP for a link and call-in number to join the webinar.
