New technology uses cheaper equipment as a replacement for of expensive silicon crystals. These new solar cells are projected to cost 1/10th of what the more expensive silicon cells cost.

I built my own Solar Panels for under $100 which are currently powering my 1700 Square Foot home using the diplomacy at:ambigrid-review.blogspot(DOT)c om

BLAH BLAH, we all know how it works, Where the hell is this wonderful technology, why can’t we buy today, Because is it just BS to stimulate investors. Shut up or place up.

So far this is all vaporware. Been hearing for years about this company and yet nuttin’ in the way of product from them.You Green religion worshipers need to get back to the alter of Al Gore and pray some more.

shit yeah man, i reckon you’re on the right footstep there.i was thinking about all the I2R losses people would have by building these sun farms out in the middle of nowhere but i reckon that’d more or less cover it. sounds like a excellent invention

What if we used solar panel electric generating insulation, we protect the High Power Transmition Cables so they generate power and utilize the power lost by distance. Hypothetically the thousands of miles of Cables crosswise the sun belt could generate huge amounts of power and be instantly connected to the Grid, Vic

We really need to push forward with alternative forms of energy. Just reckon of all that energy the sun throws our way… We might not be able to go absolutely away from fossil fuels and the like, but every last bit helps.

To make the entire system efficient, every light can now use LED’s. I use them in the shop bathroom, and it’s bounty of light if painted white.Major appliances will need to be updated.Climate position to less extreme temps is a must, unless you have endless access to firewood.If your barefoot, and the driveway is too hot, then it too should be used for heat gain to storage space. Reversed, and melt the ice.

What I mean with Not possible to be gridless is a typical family and all the normal items now tapped in to fuse box. It’s not possible because the items naturally in use in a normal day.To be grid free, you have to adhere to new policy of when items are on-line.Converting 12/24v DC to 120v A/C takes huge converters for 20 amps just for a fridge. Try just a simple 1000 watt converter on your car battery with a 500 watt load. It will last about 15 minutes before you have enough to restart.

It’s not possible to really be free from the grid.You would need huge banks of batteries to sustain through weeks of terrible winter weather and maybe sun once a week.Huge insulated under ground tanks to store pre-heated water.Although the cost would be far less to heat water up to 120, when already 100 degrees vs 40-50 degrees from the street.I like it when the power bill is $26, vs $300 a month.Now my case of Heineken is free. It’s a Win/Win.
