Since that story is almost three years old, I’d be curious to know how it all worked out with the Rockett’s location. It has to make more sense to design and build with solar in the original plan and to purchase the equipment in bulk. One day roof panels will be as ubiquitous as water heaters and dishwashers. I think of all the energy wasted as the sun cooked our house in the Mohave all those years ago….

3 years old and the status? yep… I’d agree… and I wonder if maybe it did not work out because I just don’t see new subdivisions being advertised as “solar” and one might think that to be a popular selling point…
not to date myself but a few years back I remember the marketing “all electric home”…. and think a modern version might be “All Solar”… i.e rooftop solar, grid solar … electric car outlet in the garage… “connected” appliances and thermostat… ” generates less than half the greenhouse gases than a regular home”!!!
