Established in 1954, the American Solar Energy Society is the nation’s leading association of solar professionals and advocates. Together with our members we’re building a solar-powered, energy efficient nation. But, we can’t do it without solar supporters like you. Will you JOIN US ?
We live in an off-the-grid, 1.7 KW solar electric, passive solar, timberframe home with battery storage and propane generator backup. We also have a two panel, closed loop, solar domestic hot water system using DC pumps powered by a solar panel charged battery. We operate a year round bed & breakfast (http://www.threepinesbandb.com), have an organic vegetable garden, fruit orchard, bees, rare breed sheep and chickens.
Google Maps is incorrect! The EastSide Rd. in Hancock is 10 miles east of Ellsworth Maine, on the right, just before the Hancock/Sullivan bridge. Our mailbox is 1.5 miles down the EastSide Rd on the lefthand side. Our house is .5 miles down our driveway to the shore.
