Photovoltaic (Solar) Power
Renewable energy systems can either be visible green design statements, such as the semi-transparent skylight-integrated array at the Southface Eco Office (Images 1-4), or they can be invisible clean power sources, such as the roof-top arrays at the Biodesign Institute at Arizona State University (Images 5-6) and the Global Institute of Sustainability (Image 7). The ‘solar garden’ at the Hardman Farm (Image 8) sensitively blends modern renewable energy technology with historic preservation.
