Solar Panels on MicroHouse 3
Adding solar laminate panels to our open source Compressed Earth Block (CEB) MicroHouse 3 takes the structure from the stone age to the digital age. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ocUEZujd2hw&%3Blist=UUjvBN1r7UXXqmIbx_u7bIAw

We used 136Watt Unisolar Laminate Panels that we glued on to the flat, ridged roofing panels. The solar cells were $76 for each of the 14 panels. the roofing metal, trim, screws totaled $1770 - about $4/sf for the 420 sf south-facing roof section. Not cheap - we are considering forming our own metal next time and just using a stock roll of 24 gauge roof steel. The panels snap into each other. https://opensourceecology.trovebox.com/photos/page-1/album-2h/list
