12 batteries to store the solar energy. she's got 8 panels for 1 Kwh of power. and she's off-grid.
the battery box was made from scraps and leftovers.

When their main structure was blown down in the windstorm the Taylor-Faye’s converted their straw bale garage into a small straw bale home which is where they live now while they re-build their retreat. Photo David Dodge, Green Energy Futures www.greenenergyfutures.ca/episode/craik-eco-village
i can't even tell you how much i looooved her bathroom. the clawfoot bathtub and sink were both salvaged from old local buildings. the bathtub has been refinished. she's also got a shower stall, but if i lived there, i think i'd LIVE in that bathtub.
just a simple and beautiful room.

The above image is depicts one of the two OPS 300kW Hybrid Power Conditioning Unit in use at the Caribbean system, (HPC).
The Hybrid Power Conditioner (HPC) is designed as a complete system solution for remote area power applications. This unique product can automatically configure as a static AC source or it can act independently as a phase by phase battery charger. It will optimise the start and stop of up to two diesel generators if the supply can not be maintained by the renewable contribution.
Brown wire is soldered to the power button. The red wire is soldered to the power pin on the VGA output and let's the circuit know when the computer is turned on.

Earlier this year we bought a 1960s Red Dale truck camper. The inside had been gutted and then the previous owner made it into a sleeping area for camping. We stripped out everything that was in there down to the frame and exterior metal. Then we got to work refurbishing this camper. Now it's outfitted with three 100 watt solar panels and all the trimmings for off-grid travels. We'll be heading off on our maiden voyage soon.
Summer view of the passive solar house kit, off grid, zero energy, no systems installed yet- that comes next.
This is a cheap 15 watt solar panel that I got at an auto supply store for about $100. It comes with everything you need to plug and play. The panel itself is already wired with a plug. And the frame has holes in it which made it easy to hang off the gutter here.
Living Off the Grid - www.thriveoffthegrid.com/ - See how others are living offgrid using the advantages of wind and solar energy plus more for off grid power and ...
Living off the grid you must take advantage of renewable energy. This renewable resource originates from several sources, consisting of sun, wind and water, to start with ...
Researchers are constantly on the lookout for more ways of making green energy. Here are the 2 types you must understand now.
Living off the Grid: - Advantages of Solar Power
i. The energy that originates from simply one hour of sun suffices to supply energy for a year for the whole world
ii. A battery can be used to store off grid solar power for evenings and cloudy days
iii. Solar panels on a roof work when the sun's rays strike the cells in the panel and electrons are released, producing energy
iv. Using solar power will typically provide a saving of $100+ each month on utility costs for the property owners of off grid homes .
Living off the Grid: - Advantages of Wind Energy
i. When wind goes through the blades of a turbine that is connected to a generator, the energy produced by the spin is converted into electrical energy
ii. A single large wind turbine can provide electricity for around 500 off grid homes
iii. Last year, 42 % of the houses that were geared up with a source of off grid power used wind
iv. Unlike most other sources of energy, wind utilizes hardly any water; not only is wind energy carbon neutral, it helps water conservation also
v. There is around 10 times the amount of wind available in the U.S. than is needed to supply power for the whole country
vi. Wind energy is presently the fastest-growing source of renewable energy: - Around two wind farms are set up weekly in the U.S.
For living off the grid, the facts indicate that the advantages of solar power combined with the advantages of wind energy now exceed any advantages that fossil fuels may have had. However it is probably down to individuals to begin the shift to a larger scale adoption, so that we may all enjoy living off the grid.
