What is Project Solar Harvest?
LifeSense Institute’s Project Solar Harvest presented a public demonstration at Earth Fair showing the principles behind the collection, storage and retrieval of energy from the sun for year-round heat in Northern latitudes. Similar systems have been commercialized for use throughout much of the world. These system innovations demonstrated by Project Solar Harvest are currently under development by Robert Bornn and Jon McWhirter, Ph.D., P.E. of BuildingCircles Organization. The demonstration was at Island Earthfair on Vashon-Maury Island, Washington in August 2006. NEW! November, 2006 Solar Energy Charts (courtesy of BuildingCircles Organization and Jon D.
