Solar energy is the cleanest and most abundant renewable energy source available in Southern Arizona. Current technology allows several ways to capture solar power, giving the public and business owners different options to use the heat and light of the sun.
There are three primary ways to harness solar energy: photovoltaics, heating and cooling systems, and passive solar.
