Solar energy
An 11 kW roof, installed this fall
Twenty-two 500 W panels, each with its own microinverter, on a sloped residential roof. Grid-tied, so the summer surplus goes to BC Hydro and comes back as credit in the dark months.

Why the name
Built for the night the line comes down
Every winter, wind and wet snow take lines down from Lund to Ucluelet. A house with solar on the roof and a battery in the garage does not notice. The fridge runs, the internet stays up, the well pump works, and the array refills the battery in the morning.
That is what a resilient home looks like, and it is wired as one system: a panel that can carry it, an array sized to the roof, storage sized to the loads that matter, and a charger for the car. Start with any piece. The rest is planned so it fits later.
