  1. Battery boom marks a new political chapter in Australia's energy wars

  7. I have a new cooking apparatus. A solar stove. Cooking with solar energy. No gas, electricity, or anything like that needed. Works great. Full unboxing and setup video to follow.

  12. @wil @dianea @jensorensen

    I convinced my elderly mother to add solar when she wanted her roof replaced. The cost of electricity has gone up since then, making it even better.

    This week I roughed out some numbers for switching to #ElectricVehicles ; even without #SolarEnergy , an EV would my cost per mile by more than 90%. Just the money saved would pay for a cheap EV in about a decade.

    FYI: I have my eye on a Slate and have decided that I don't even want to ride in a Tesla or Rivian because they don't have safe (mechanical) interior door release mechanisms. (That and I want nothing to do with #ElonMusk .)

  16. Even thought the #UK is north of 50° latitude, on a #Sunny #Spring day, it is currently getting over 40% of its #Electricity from #SolarEnergy alone. Along with #WindEnergy, the share is over 60%. Meanwhile, #FossilFuels (gas) is at or below 10%.
