The Little House goes electric!

8/3/2023

0 Comments

 
We’re SO excited to finally be walking the walk when it comes to electrification and clean energy! In the past few weeks, we’ve added solar panels and a new mini-split system (both of which were generously donated as part of a home upgrade) at our office, AKA the Little House.

We’ve now got solar humming on our roof and a quiet, super efficient heat pump keeping us cool on hot afternoons. Check out this fun video of the moment we switched on our solar and started putting clean electricity back on the grid.

Big SHOUT OUTS to Orion Thornton with Onsite Energy, Kevin Depuy, Dwight Thomas, Rick Craig, and the folks at Pete’s Electric and Anderson’s Plumbing & Heating for getting us wired up and connected! A ton of donated community time went into this, and we’re so grateful.
