Larry Hagman goes Solar -Shine baby shine!

Interesting that Larry Hagman, the Oil Barren on Dallas, has gone green.

“People just donâ€t understand that when the end of affordable energy comes, itâ€s going to be chaos. What do we do to prevent that?”


To that end, Hagman took his nine-bedroom, 18 000 square foot,14 1/2 -bathroom Mediterranean-style estate off-grid in 2003, causing his annual electric bill to plummet.

In his personal life, Larry Hagman had followed through his own words. The 78-year-old actor and his wife Maj own the largest residential solar-power system in the United States. Since he first installed the solar power system in 2003, the annual electric bill for his mountaintop home and 46-acre farm plummeted from $37,000 to $13 overnight, according to a press release.
