Direct-wired “Community Solar”
Accepted and agreed. You see where this is heading right? I mean aside from the TEMPORARY ONLY (like for emergency or construction, etc) Extension Cord(s). (better? ;) ) What this stuff always comes d

Direct-wired “Community Solar”
Understood. The connection point at the far end would be a "relay" -- like a small Transfer Switch. Probably one relay per circuit or load on the neighbor's side. The relay has two "power input" conta

Looking for offline help
Maybe post a 1-Line of what you are trying to do? Probably someone will poke holes in it. Sort of what we do. Since you are sort of rolling your own, and off-grid, and are being cheap -- have you cons

Direct-wired “Community Solar”
What would you like? a "door-to-door" link? Just asking the basic specifications? Maybe door-to-door-to-nextdoor-to . . . . and then you just tap-off or "sell" into the mix as wanted or needed?

This is not about Renewable Energy directly . . . . but it should have a part. I track them on Facebook and signed up. Will report back what they say. ;P They do not have it on their own website, yet

ERCOT asks Texans to conserve power after electricity plants go offline
Here is the text and cut-and-paste. If it does not come through let know Overall rather "lite" and ZERO specifics regarding plants, types, or details of Fail(s). ============================ ERCOT ask

Thanks. Did you notice the date on that? 2003. See why I am wondering if this is all fading . . . Your application is Hot Water (only?) No space heat? Have you ever considered putting a car radiator o

(sorry, hit send) Anti-Freeze is for the Freezing aspect, right? Simple Distilled Water will still freeze -- so the equipment is at risk for mechanical (freeze) damage? How about this . . . Distilled

Fw: Thank You For Your Interest
Yes. That is pretty much what I am talking about -- but it seems the "Electricity Only" thing that Saul Griffith (etc.) are promoting do not even understand how well and how cheap these are?

Has the general consensus become that Thermal (Solar) Collectors are not worth the time / effort? Asking for both Water and Concrete Floor Heat. Thanks.

Texas RE Growth
That one is easy. HVDC -- High Voltage DC. Texas could jump to the Top of the US and Top of the World with just that. The Renewable assets can be a quick mix of Home-Owners, Business, Small City and L

Solar Pergola - question: anyone know a way of making them watertight?
Do your intended panels/modules have a frame, or no? Do you have a spec sheet on any of the panels you are considering? Probably a pdf link is best.

Texas Solar Is Booming
And Bi-facial are exempt from the Biden=Trump Anti-Solar PV Punitive Tariff . . . . That is meant to only hit little people.
