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.

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.

Our 2006 T@b Clamshell (now up for sale) and the new Oliver Travel Trailer side by side. The Oliver is only technically 1 foot longer - but if offers so much more. Both have been customized with uber solar electrical systems, ideal for boondocking and offgrid camping/lliving.
