I want to thank everyone for their friendly advise and willingness to help out a fellow PV'er. Our site plan is almost finished and we will begin building very soon: http://www.geocities.com/renewables/knapp_r5.jpg (The small PV array at the well goes further to the NE away from the workshop) Our new solar earthship will be a series of five domes made partially from recycled materials. It will collect rain catch water, be totally off-grid, recycle some gray water that will assist in growing food & flowers in the double greenhouse in the front south face. Our PV modules will be located on the south face above the south windows and be seasonally adjusted similar to this home still under construction: http://www.geocities.com/renewables/eship_panorama1.jpg A short description of our construction: http://www.geocities.com/renewables/ours.html Construction similar to ours: http://www.geocities.com/renewables/lecour.jpg http://www.geocities.com/renewables/sundial.jpg Our complete adventure: http://www.geocities.com/renewables Thanks everyone!
