I spoke several times at the Council Meetings about Non Fossil Energy From Our PlanetFor Camas. I'd like to start a dialogue on this topic to see if there is enough interest here in Camas about pursing more Solar & Wind energy sources. Because I continue to research Non-Fossil Fuel energy I came across this this "Roof top Wind Power which looks pretty exciting.

This is a good site to look at for better understanding.

I did my MBA/PHD dissertation on Non Fossil Fuel Energy Sources & In Homes/Buildings Water Recycling Systems. I've been involved with these systems for over 30 years. One drop of incoming fresh water can be recycled 5 times over & that last drop of water is clean enough to water non-food-providing plants, converting existing homes & buildings to "Earthship Technology".
The other thing I've been involved with is developing "Neighborhood Solar & Wind Grids" using Smart Energy Systems. This is about taking a neighborhood like mine for instance about 20 homes, Installing Solar & Wind, hooking the homes together & having a Central Power Station in the neighborhood & using the local power utility company as the back up system. So this is not intended to be "Off The Grid" power source.
The idea is that all the homes do not use the same amount of power 24/7/365, some more some less & with the Sharing Technology now available no home would ever be with out power in fact by having the neighborhood power station controlling the transfer of electric power the excess power would be transferred to the local Power Utility Producer & we would receive payment or credit.
I got Solar quotes on all three of my houses. The California Seacliff Beach House & the Camas House would would run the meter backwards 10 to 11 months per year. In both cases I would get credit from the power company to pay for those months if any that I needed to draw power from the power company.
For The Flagstaff, AZ House, AZ Power actually offered to pay for, install & manage the solar panels. They knew our home would produce more power than we could use & the excess goes back into the local grid.
I would love to hear your ideas, pro or con.
