Welcome to our first of many Energy Systems & Design newsletters! Our newsletters will consist of interesting stories, helpful articles, new products and product offerings
As a few of ES&D’s customers have learned, living off-grid can allow you to follow your passion. A couple of kayakers are able to live closer than anybody else to the Skookumchuck Narrows thanks to micro hydro energy.
A great video from an off-grid ES&D customer. This site in West Virginia runs about 380 watts and is coupled with a solar panel.
We now offer our 1K hydro machine. The name could have a dollar sign in front as the selling price is less than $1000. Okay, it retails for $995. The power output is similar to the standard Stream Engine.
It has been a while since the previous newsletter. We are doing many new things and it is time to mention a few of these. As usual, we are trying to do things that are not being done now so we fill an opening in the market.
PV charge regulations can be relatively simple: When the batteries are full, the controller disconnects the PV array.
Many people contact us concerning the possibility of using a power source that is either connected to the commercial power grid or feeding power to a house that is. While this may be possible, it is not likely to make economic sense.
Every morning, before brushing teeth or having a look at the weather outside our Victoria, Australia, off-grid home, my wife Carrie or I pad downstairs to the battery room to check the meters that monitor our electrical system.
If you have a suitable site, harnessing the energy in a stream or creek can be the most cost-effective way to make renewable electricity. Compared to the sun and wind’s variability, a stream’s flow is relatively consistent, making microhydro-electric system output the most predictable of all the renewable energy (RE) electrical systems.
