"This is really a labour of passion for me," she says. "I'm all about the environment and doing the right things for Manitoba." The most common form of solar energy is harnessed by arrays of solar panels, or photovoltaic cells. Surplus energy can be stored in batteries, which charge during daylight hours so users will have energy available to them at night and/or as a backup system during power outages. Batteries can be costly, but these systems save money in the long run. Evolve Green offers several different kinds of batteries and related products, from LED lights with four-hour backup all the way up to deluxe whole-home packages, which will keep the lights on — along with the furnace and all other electric systems — for the duration of pretty much any emergency. Naturally, the whole-home system is solar ready. "I'M ALL ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENT AND DOING THE RIGHT THINGS FOR MANITOBA." HARNESSING THE SUN — Cont'd from page 97 POH 98 Parade of Homes FALL 2022
