Se exhiben obras de arte personales y fotograf\u00edas familiares en cada pared, y los colores pintados de cada habitaci\u00f3n contribuyen a crear un ambiente acogedor.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMi hogar es el centro de la familia. Es all\u00ed donde celebramos los cumplea\u00f1os de todos\u201d, comparti\u00f3 Kathy con orgullo.<\/p>\n<p>Hace dos a\u00f1os, el esposo de Kathy falleci\u00f3, dejando a Kathy con responsabilidades importantes, como la reparaci\u00f3n de la casa. \u201cMi esposo hizo todo en el hogar. Cuando falleci\u00f3, sent\u00ed que no sab\u00eda qu\u00e9 hacer\u201d<em> cualquier cosa<\/em>,\u201d, dijo ella.<\/p>\n<p>Un sistema de energ\u00eda solar hab\u00eda estado en su lista de deseos desde hace mucho tiempo, pero se sent\u00eda como un objetivo a\u00fan m\u00e1s lejano despu\u00e9s de que Kathy se diera cuenta de que ten\u00eda que asumir todas las responsabilidades que conlleva ser una propietaria de vivienda individual. Sin embargo, con el aumento de los costos de vida, estaba decidida a buscar cualquier v\u00eda que pudiera generar ahorros potenciales en sus costos mensuales. Finalmente, Kathy se conect\u00f3 con GRID Alternatives a trav\u00e9s del Sacramento Municipal Utilities District (SMUD), y se estableci\u00f3 una alianza que vincula a GRID con 15 propietarios de viviendas elegibles para recibir energ\u00eda solar sin costo en el \u00e1rea de Sacramento, incluyendo algunos de los primeros sistemas de energ\u00eda solar + bater\u00eda de GRID.<\/p>\n<p>En enero, GRID complet\u00f3 la instalaci\u00f3n gratuita en el tejado de la casa de Kathy, que inclu\u00eda un sistema solar de 7.315 kw-DC, un cargador para veh\u00edculos el\u00e9ctricos y un sistema de bater\u00edas. Se calcula que el sistema combinado con tres componentes ofrece a Kathy un ahorro anual de m\u00e1s de $1.000, con un ahorro esperado de $24.265 durante toda la vida \u00fatil del sistema.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"migrated-inline-image\"
