The Solar Electric House: Energy for the Environmentally-Responsive, Energy-Independent Home
Steven Strong's classic roadmap to building a solar-powered home. This insightful and visionary book, first published in 1979, remains the definitive guide to the basic premises and functionality of photovoltaic systems for residential building.

praise for the book:

"The Solar Electric House is undoubtedly the most complete book on the very expansive and complicated subject of photovoltaic (PV). Unlike many trades, finding good information on PV use and installation with the right amount of technical detail and handholding in book format is not easy. Few comprehensive guides on the subject exist to begin with and to make matters worse, alot of misinformation has been spread around by those with a stake in the game, leaving the consumer and property owner wondering what to do."
---K.K., Ohio, USA
"Among the country’s leading designers of solar homes.”
--Time Magazine
