Learn the Basics of Annualized Geo Solar Home Construction

Zero Net Energy Consumption Homebuilding Workshop

June 28, 2014 - 10:00-4:30

Learn the basics of Annualized Geo Solar home construction in a one-day workshop.

AGS uses stored solar energy to provide heat in the winter and to keep temperatures cool in the summer. With enough sun exposure, any building site has the capacity for AGS.

The workshop will be held in a 2000 sq ft. AGS building on Chuckleberry Community Farm in Beasley. The off-grid building combines AGS and solar panels to provide its own electricity, heating and hot water.

The facilitator Jon Scott has over 20 years of home-building experience. This workshop is great for those interested in building self-heating homes and greenhouses, as well as home building contractors.
Sponsored by Transition Nelson and CBT.
