Twin Oaks Community Huge Solar PV Array

A 10 kilowatt photovoltaic electricity generating array is nearing completion at Twin Oaks. This is a grid-excited net-metered installation, though we'll probably also modify it to run a well pump during power outages. The State of Virginia has provided a sizable tax credit or other rebate.
