Establishment and Furnishing of the Photovoltaic Center for the Southwest Residential Experiment Station. Final Report, July 3, 1980-September 30, 1981
A building to serve as the operations, data gathering, and administrative complex and visitor center for the Southwest Residential Experiment Station (SW RES) was designed, constructed, and furnished as a cost-shared portion of a multiyear effort by the New Mexico Solar Energy Institute to establish and operate the SW RES for the Department of Energy National Photovoltaic Center Program. The 3000-square-foot building, called the Photovoltaic Center, houses a Visitor Center, shop area, offices, rest rooms, and a large data collection room. The passive solar design includes earth berms, glazing along the southwest wall of the building and thermal mass in 55-gallon drums filled with water to store heat from solar radiation entering the building. The building is located on the New Mexico State University campus in Las Cruces. (ERA citation 07:046277)
