Giddy with Solar Excitement

Today was the first day we have not added any heat to the house.  We had an 18 degree night, the sun was bright and the house went to 70 degrees.  We did not have to burn any wood and had a completely carbon free day.  We also created over 6 Kw of electricity.  So this is proof that a solar home in the cold coast of Maine works.  I am looking forward to the rest of week as the forecast is for a run of bright and sunny days.  I should have more data soon and am still after the holy grail of an $8 electric bill.  Maybe February will be the month.
