“What I am building in the house is really my dream kitchen. I have a fridge. I have two ovens, a microwave, and induction cooktop […] But I do have a second kitchen. I have a commercial oven in the second kitchen. I have a commercial fridge and freezer. I have another induction cooktop. I have two dishwashers, which is a lot of energy […]. All that energy is just coming form REC Solar Panels. It's quite amazing.”
