Solar electric panels installed on auditorium roof.
In August, the South Slough Reserve installed a 13-kilowatt photovoltaic system on its interpretive center auditorium roof. Reserve staff members stood by as the switch was first pulled on September 3 and the solar panels began pouring electricity back into the electric grid. Reserve Manager Mike Graybill estimates a 75% reduction in annual electricity costs due to the photovoltaic cells. The solar panels were funded with a NOAA grant and tax credits.
