Frank Cassarino became interested in lowering his carbon footprint. This interest led him to want to use renewable energy. He obtained resource materials concerning residential solar power systems. His prior knowledge of DC (direct current) electrical equipment had been gained through technical manuals and the servicing he had performed on mobile electrical equipment.

Come hear Frank, and his wife, Eleanor, describe how they now utilize solar energy to lower their consumption and costs related to using electric power. Bring along a friend or two, as well!
