Shining a Light on Solar Energy

Over the past few years, Stone Lab’s solar pavilion and the solar panels on the Classroom Building have been a staple view from Put-in-Bay harbor on South Bass Island. Aside from the positive environmental impact, the set-up, along with solar thermal tubes on the Dining Hall roof, offer an exciting opportunity for research and education into solar energy, and a newly developed Solar Technology Curriculum is the first to put that plan into action.
