After reading this weeks Vi Daily I came to the conclusion when we build our dome to also somehow incorporate solar power. Would anyone know a good brand company who makes solar panels? Does someone on the islands sell them?
Thanks,
Iris

Hello Iris,

I believe the Energy Office (part of the Dept. of Natural Resources) might have information on this & suggestions.

Iris,
I would think some of our yacht crews might have that answer. Will poll them and see.

Great super. I have found some soft solar panels online. Just wondering what is already on island. I have seen most public housing on STX seem to have solar panels.

Iris,
Looking in my marine guide, the closest match I could find was maybe Glentronics 778-6505. The do electronics and electrical sort of marine work. They should probably know. I will keep you posted if any of our members answer back.

If you can believe it, Home Depot on STT sells solar panels.
AND I understand that they install as well.
