Today, South Whidbey High School generated 3.0 Kilowatt-hours of electricity. From fossil-fueled sources, this amount of electricity would have emitted 4.2 lbs of CO₂ into the atmosphere.

This could power:

An electric toothbrush for 11 weeks
A 42" plasma-screen television for 6 hours
A typical video game system for 6 days

The South Whidbey Solar Project reflects the community’s commitment to educate students and community members about sustainable power and transportation. The PV System and accompanying Electric Vehicle Recharging Station was installed on the roof of the Sports Stadium by the community, during a workshop organized by students Dylan Fate, and Trevor Martin (Class of 2008).

The photovoltaic (PV) system features a single 1.6 kW array of eight Sanyo 200-watt PV modules. The system can light more than 100 compact fluorescent light bulbs. Over a year, it can produce more than 1,500 kilowatt-hours of clean, renewable energy.
