SOLAR by George Mokray |
1. A good place to start is the Center for Renewable Energy Sustainable Technology (CREST). Host to a number of different environmental and alternative energy sites (including Rocky Mountain Institute and Northeast Sustainable Energy Assocation among many others).
2. Solar Energy International has a good page of solar links.
3. North Carolina Solar Center is a good example of a regional information source.
4. Real Goods is probably the biggest purveyor of mial order solar equipment in the country (but check out Edmunds Scientific too).
5. The best solar electric group I know of is Enersol. They have been doing small-scale, gradual photovoltaic development in the Dominican Republic and now in Central America. They don't have a Website, so you can get in touch with them via e-mail or regular mail at the address below:
Enersol Associates Contact: Julie Smith 55 Middlesex St., Suite 221 Chelmsford, MA 01863 USA Phone: 508-251-8387 Fax: 508-251-5291
6. Another Internet resource are listservs, electronic mailing lists. Look at this search engine for listservs. Here are the solar and renewable energy listservs that I discovered there:
renewable-energy solarcooking-l solar_utilities
You can subscribe to solar_utilities via email. Leave the message header blank, and type "subscribe solar_utilities" as the message. You can subscribe to renewable-energy and solarcooking-l via email as well--follow the same procedure.
If this doesn't work, please let me know and I'll see what I can do to fix it up.
