Ordinance 883 <br />Page 5 <br />SOLAR COLLECTOR SURFACE: Any part of a solar collector that absorbs solar <br />energy for use in the collector's energy transformation process. Collector surface does <br />not include frames supports and mounting hardware. <br />SOLAR ENERGY: Radiant energy received from the sun that can be collected in the <br />form of heat or light by a solar collector. <br />SOLAR ENERGY EASEMENT: An easement that limits the height or location or both, <br />of permissible development on the burdened land in terms of a structure or vegetation <br />or both for the purpose of providing access for the benefited land to wind or sunlight <br />passing over the burdened land. <br />heat from a collector to another medium using mechanical electrical, or chemical <br />means. <br />SOLAR HOT WATER SYSTEM: A system that includes a solar collector and a heat <br />exchanger that heats or preheats water for building heating systems or other hot water <br />needs including residential domestic hot water and hot water for commercial purposes. <br />SOLAR MOUNTING DEVICES: Racking frames or other devices that allow the <br />mounting of a solar collector onto a roof surface or the ground. <br />WECS: A Wind Energy Conversion System which is an electrical generating facility <br />comprised of one or more wind turbines and accessory facilities including but not <br />limited to power lines transformers substations and metrological towers that operate <br />by converting the kinetic energy of wind into electrical energv The energy must be <br />used on-site with excess energy distributed into the electrical grid. <br />WECS Large: A Wind Energy Conversion System with a capacity over 100 W. <br />WECS Small: A Wind Energy Conversion System with a capacity of up to 100 M. <br />WIND ENERGY SYSTEM: Kinetic energy present in wind motion that can be converted <br />into electrical energy. <br />
