This photograph features houses in this Premier Homes development, near Sacramento, that has a 2.2-kilowatt building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) system manufactured by GE Energy. The homes equipped with solar PV electric system drew an average of 54 percent less power from the grid than an adjacent development that featured energy efficient homes but no solar systems.
