- Work at the Radix Center Begins October 18, 2009
Scott Kellogg and Stacy Pettigrew started work this week on their new project – the Radix Ecological Sustainability Center. After many months spent clearing regulatory hurdles, we’ve gotten the green light from the city of Albany to begin work. With construction permit in hand, we’ve started to dig holes for cedar fence posts on the half acre property. Numerous boulders and concrete slabs provide fun challenges, but we are excited to get going on this new endeavor. We plan to have a new Radix website containing details about the project up soon. Also, look for an upcoming new workshop series in Summer 2010!

In late December,the team at SEED – Sustainable Engineering and Environmental Design, lllc. installed 11 solar panels onto the Radix greenhouse. The panels were installed “landscape”, or horizontally across the south facing peak of the greenhouse. The panels will be able to collect ample sunlight in this location, creating minimal shade in the winter, and more shading in the summer (when some shading is desirable!) The panels are connected in a grid-intertie, which will send surplus electricity back to the electrical grid, lowering or eliminating our electrical bill. The panels will make a great contribution to our educational display, showing off the potential for decentralized renewable energy. Big thanks to SEED for their all their help and guidance in the installation – and for giving us a great deal!
Any donations to help off-set installation costs are appreciated!
