Solaranlagen kennen wir vor allem als Dachanlage auf den Häusern von Gutverdienenden - oft im Dreiklang mit E-Auto und Wärmepumpe.

Ein Projekt in Bo/Sierra Leone zeigt, dass PV auch den Ärmsten der Armen helfen kann. Dort sichert nun eine PV-Anlage den Strom für Brutkästen, Sauerstoff und Licht für Frühgeborene (Diesel war zu teuer). Und rettet damit buchstäblich Leben. Sehenswerter Bericht:

Many institutions and companies don’t invest in solar pv because they think it will take decades to recover the cost…but really they are missing a trick.

#Norwich University of the Arts have just had a big install (186 panels) that is projected to pay for itself within just 7 years.

Norwich University of the ArtsThe big switch on: Norwich University of the Arts powers up with solar energyNorwich University of the Arts is making a bold and exciting move toward a more sustainable future.

Autumn is absolutely the best time of year.

Our tiny 1.5kW Solar system is currently supplying pretty much all of the power we're using at home for a good portion of the morning.

A combination of clear sunny skies, and lower temperatures (no need for aircon) has provided this result.

(once we get the bigger solar and battery installed, this should be the case for more of the year)
