Absolutely, in our region there are approximately 4.5 direct sun hours on average. This is plenty to provide ample hot water or electricity for the energy conscious household. Solar panels may be installed on roofs, in yards with good southern exposure, or as an architectural feature such as awnings or carports. There are many efficient, innovative products available for both solar water heating and electricity production.
