Photovoltaic Nuts and Volts

It’s the first week of the month so that means it’s time for another BS* and Beer Show! Last year we discussed solar energy in both October (Harnessing Solar Power’s Potential) and December (Solar Power Backup and Storage) but we never got into the real Nuts and Bolts of Photovoltaics. This week we remedy that with Vaughan Woodruff and Will Field of @revisionsolar who get into the gear of these systems, discuss the various components and how they work together. *Thanks go to Bryan Uhler of Pioneer Builders for suggesting the punny name change, from bolts to volts.

Water Vapor Challenges

Christine Williamson—perhaps better known as the BS expert behind the Instagram account Building Science Fight Club—joins us to discuss the importance of vapor control. There is a lot of confusion around vapor management in building assemblies, stemming, in part, from the way people think about vapor barriers as a membrane to be bought rather than the vapor permeance of any given material. There are also constant questions concerning exterior insulation ratios. Christine will help us get clear on the answers. Please register in advance for The BS + Beer Show here: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_e7kVCBvHQtugeoJtziw3OA. Note that this is a special login for this date only.
