Conference ·
OSTI ID:6741459

Since 1979 Massachusetts Institute of Technology Lincoln Laboratory has been developing and testing residential-size photovoltaic power systems. Lessons learned from this experience, and performance summaries for the five prototype systems at the Northeast Residential Experiment Station (in Concord, Massachusetts) and the system at the all-electric Carlisle PV house, are given. Results of evaluating five utility-interactive residential-size inverters also are reported.
