Chris Gerards, Owner of H2OSOLAR spoke to Rotary on putting solar, wind and renewable energy to work in residential homes or commercial buildings.  The use of Solar Power for Hot Water systems transfers heat from the sun making it 70-80% efficient.  This is a huge benefit to those families with teens who have no concept of the water usage, including laundry mats and car washes.  Rebates, tax credits and other financial incentives are available for solar, wind or renewable energy systems. These can significantly reduce the price of installing a renewable energy system.  www.h2osolar.net
