Good Days

Yesterday our system generated 60 percent of our energy but today the clouds have moved in.  The months of March and April are typically our best months.  The sky is clear and the days are getting longer.  Production peaks in April or May and then declines as the rainy season begins.  We need to work on conservation and plan to eventually replace our refrigerators with more efficient ones.  The refrigerators are our biggest consumers after air conditioning and heating.  With some effort it is possible to retrofit an old house like ours into a zero energy home.  If we replaced our two refrigerators we would come close.
