Made-in-Alberta - Chapter 3: Ep. 2 "Power of Efficiency"
Power of Efficiency
Western Canada's grid-tied-solar pioneer discovered the
amazing power of "Negawatts" in his quest to get all his electricity
from the sun.
Solar in the City
"Solar in the City" investigates residential solar power,
distributed generation and you. A photo-voltaic system plus energy
conservation is a formula for green, secure residential power. But, does
backyard micro-power have a larger role to play in Alberta¹s energy
marketplace?
Made-in-Alberta
Energy, water and climate, these are hot topics for the 21st Century.
With conventional fuel reserves running out, water tables running low,
and global temperatures running high, many Albertans are finding new
energy solutions. Made-in-Alberta brings their stories to community
television and the world wide web with this innovative new series.
