Today, Sellwood Middle School generated 4.5 Kilowatt-hours of electricity. From fossil-fueled sources, this amount of electricity would have emitted 6.3 lbs of CO2 into the atmosphere.

This could power:

  • An electric toothbrush for 17 weeks
  • A 42" plasma-screen television for 8 hours
  • A typical video game system for 1 week

Sellwood Middle School installed a 1.36 kilowatt PV system in July of 2009 thanks to support from the Northwest Environmental Defense Center. The program also included a middle school activity guide, science kit and an onsite teacher training.
