When we bought our land in 1984 we had an old nonrunning school bus towed to the property.

Help needed in renovating my off-grid home with the aim of creating a warm comfortable welcoming space using sustainable, low cost, low impact materials.

CEO of AbzeSolar, H.R.H Princess Abze Djigma was one of the panelists participating in the Session: "Maximizing socio-economic benefits through off-grid renewable energy solutions"

My teacher Pamela visiting with Ella and her second dog. She lives in the house with her boyfriend and another 65lb dog. The owner of the land lives in the large house in the background. They rent space to her. She got a cut in the rent by offering to shovel manure from their horse paddock. Her water and electricity are also hooked up at the paddock via a hose and a long extension cord.

The solar pocket is removable and can be attached to other bags or anything else as it charges. Besides charging all your handheld electronics, it has 1,500 cubic inches of storage space, a padded laptop sleeve, integrated phone pouch and plenty of other pockets. Two 2.0 Watt Solar Panels generate power in sunlight. They are waterproof, lightweight and built to withstand abuse.

Universal USB Battery stores power for use anytime and is specially designed to charge efficiently from solar. When not in the sun, the battery can be charged using the USB Power Cable or optional AC travel charger or DC car charger making it just as useful on the grid as off. Connect to Devices via the USB Port or 5 standard adapters.

Functional solar-powered artwork lit the clusters of porta-lets. small 20 watt solar panels fed into a battery which at night fed the led-lit glass insulators. A powerful statement about how solar is now lighting up our lives through the utility grid.

This side event, co-hosted by IRENA and Norway, presented IRENA’s findings on off-grid and brought together practitioners to share experiences and identify concrete actions needed to scale-up off-grid renewable energy deployment.

Mr. Opam participated as a panelist in the first session of IOREC 2016, which discussed solutions to integrate off-grid technologies in electrification strategies.

Sheila Hicks: Off Grid exhibition at the Hepworth Wakefield 7 April-25 September 2022.

From the Hepworth's website:

Sheila Hicks (b. Nebraska, USA 1934) is one of the world's foremost artists investigating colour, form and texture.

Drawing together over 70 works from international public and private collections, this major exhibition explores the many facets of Hicks’ ground-breaking work. They range from intimate minimes – small woven explorations that Hicks continually creates on a hand-held frame – to large-scale installations that fill spaces with voluminous form and vibrant colour. The exhibition spans Hicks’ career from her earliest works made in the 1950s to new site-specific commissions.

Off Grid reveals how Hicks’ extensive travels across several continents, where she immersed herself in local communities and studied vernacular textile traditions by observing and collaborating with local artists and artisans, together with her own experimentation and natural curiosity, inspired her to develop an unique artistic language. On display are little-known photographs and journals offering insights into the extraordinary range of cultural and aesthetic influences that have inspired her work.

Prestigious collaborations and commissions have enabled Hicks to collapse the boundaries between art, architecture and design. These have included commissions for the Ford Foundation headquarters in New York, King Saud University in Riyadh and the Cultural Centre of Fuji City in Japan as well as projects with IBM, CBS, Air France, Rothschild Bank, Bridgestone, Artek and Georg Jensen, several of which are examined in the exhibition.

For The Hepworth Wakefield, Hicks has created major new installations that respond to David Chipperfield’s architecture and the new Tom Stuart-Smith garden, where there is a specially-commissioned monumental sculpture of weather-resistant fibres.

IRENA Associate Programme Officer Divyam Nagpal was one of the panelists participating in the Session: "Maximizing socio-economic benefits through off-grid renewable energy solutions"

Director of Strategic Initiatives at All Power Labs, Tom Price was one of the participants in the Panel Session "Emerging technology solutions for off-grid renewable energy systems"

In addition to attending the sessions, IOREC guests could visit the exhibition on off-grid technologies organised by the Alliance for Rural Electrification
