CAPRA J'NEVA, 2008 RUNNER-UP: VERANDA SOLAR

Veranda Solar products bring solar electrical generation to a mass audience. The solar panels attach with simple tools to windowsills, balconies and gutters, so people with limited budgets or space can install them. Not only do the products attack basic assumptions about who solar power is for, they provide customers with an attractive, eye-catching statement of their dedication to the environment.

Barriers to entering the home solar power market are lowered, as engineers, installers and electricians do not need to be involved in installing the system.
