Resorts: Big Sur Completely Off the Grid








Unique lodging and dining on California’s breathtaking Big Sur Coast.

Treebones is a world-class eco-resort is completely off the grid. For their electrical needs they utilize clean burning micro turbines developed in California. They are like small jet engines with 650 degree heat exhaust. They recycle that heat through an exchanger to supply hot water for radiant heated floors, to heat the pool and spa and for hot water use in the kitchen and restrooms. The exterior site lighting is low voltage and downcast so that guests can all enjoy the beautiful star filled night skies. Unwanted light can be considered pollution. They supplement their micro turbines with a 6 KW self contained solar power system. They utilize high efficiency pumps, LED or CFL lighting throughout the site and the use of skylights in all of their buildings to reduce our electrical demand.
