Only joking people we actually use re-chargables for remotes as they last for years,turn all switchs off all the time not just at night also we limit the amount of time the shower switch is on for hot-water you have to now a days as we are on PAYG meters and pay higher rates than everone else.
we use as muck lecky as possible as its all going to run out so soon....woop-woop
If we are to survive we must lessen our ego, our material desires. Technology is a useful tool in itself. More important is creative minds. Wake up n' live simply. Work together to the new global heart.
Peace
The sad truth is that the rich keep getting richer and the poor keep getting poorer. For any new technology to become widespread, it must be priced at an affordable level. I have a good job with a good wage and I can't really afford to convert to solar power completely, it's just not cost effective. My biggest environmental goal is to get my daughter to stop taking hour long showers. Once that's achieved, I'll work on finding new energy sources past just turning out the lights
I like those konventional solar panels, however e.g. in souther germany a lot of people refuse this technology because of the aesthatic impact. For such people, this technology would be wonderfull.
I think that in future most of the surfaces of houses, places, cars etc. wil be covered by such a PV System. Which provides a bis share of the worldwide energy demand.
I really like this idea because, my house faces south so, the sun passes directly over every sq. inch of my roof. Panels would need the extra expense of moving parts to follow the sun.
The problem with solar in america is that, it's ROI is very low for the average home. Most of America's wealth is like any other nation. Only a few have the majority of it.
It takes 20 yrs to recoup the cost even with tax incentives. The batteries will have to be replaced maybe a couple of times.... More
I've done a lot of reading on all kinds of green energy resources, from RV solar panels, to residential solar panels, to wind turbines, but even I've got to admit that I've never even heard of building-integrated photovoltaic solar panels.
This is a genuinely informative blog. Thank you for putting in the time and effort to share this great information about an alternative to the typical residential solar
Can you believe that this **** has to be done? Idiots need to too look nice before they use technology that saves the planet... sigh.
I think this would be a great idea but right now there is a problem with this picture. with all those roof angles you would shade most a lot of panel during the day. Solar panels are wired in series so if a fraction of the panel is shaded you will cut the power produced significantly. You could get around this problem if you use micro inverters so that you could separate each panel so that it wont effect the rest of the panels I realize that this is just an idea but at the moment its not....

My camp is powered You have to only use what you need but it kicks ***!
I believe a closed Mind is Owned by a Fool !!!
" I wrote that saying for my EX husband " and now I would like to share it with the people of the United States Because 90% of you are the Fools. WAKE UP Before Its to late.
