Naomi and I rented a small tiny home/cabin through Air BNB for a little weekend getaway to hit the restart button. We took her polaroid camera as well but I didn't scan any of those in.

It's nice to be off-grid and still have the capacity to run a few laptops.

Passive solar house kit- overhangs prevent the summer sun from heating the house, low winter sun helps heat it. Energy efficient design reduces need for bigger systems. Built with SIP, with passive solar modern design.

The batteries were second hand and stored for almost a year so we're giving them a really good charge before connecting them to the household circuit

Walking back to my cabin after supper along the path, over the stream, I stopped. It was dark but the filtered moonlight through the wispy clouds gave just enough illumination.

 

Listening. I heard nothing. It is windless night, cold, ground blanketed with fresh powder.

 

Still stopped, frozen in place, I glanced around. Searching the forest I saw nothing.

 

For a brief moment not a car moving, not a plane overhead, not an animal moving. I was alone in the silence.

 

Those moments are rare.

The above photograph is an aerial view of the Caribbean renewable power system that was commissioned in late April 2010.

 

This is an off-grid system that incorporates 8 x 15 kW wind turbines, 240 kWp solar photovoltaics, 3 x 312 kVA diesel gensets and a whopping 360v battery bank rated at 6000Ah capable of storing 2.16 MWh of energy.

The above photograph depicts part of the Caribbean project 360V battery bank, that is rated at 6000AH and is capable of 2.16MWh energy storage.

 

As the system is entirely off-grid, it is necessary for a large energy storage facility to meet the client's load profile.

There is NO such thing was waste. Just not used resources.

Sometimes some leave their PC at home and go off grid to communicate & eat marsh-mellows at a campfire.

Brent Kreuger and his partner Monica were the first to overwinter in the Craik Eco-Village where they built their Praxis International Institute boarding school and home after “a meeting of the minds” when they met with the local sustainability committee and plopped down their money to buy a lot in the Eco-Village for a dollar.

Once the house was finished, the airstream was moved to an outlying five acres and served as our gust house.

Our friends have been restoring a old birth house in a nearby farming

community. I bought the PV solar gear for them last year, but various

delays got in the way of finishing the install. Finally, we hooked up

the last few cables today and they flipped the switch. Now they can

live 100% off-grid in their little vacation house.
