Welcome Them!

Describe your system(s): I lived for 6 years off the grid on Orcas Island in Washington and loved it! We used minimal energy for the amount of energy we were producing with the Harris Hydro system and a small solar electric array.

The micro hydro system had one nozzle that fed over 2 psi to the turbine. The water source was a year round spring approximately 1500 physical feet and approx 900 feet elevation to a 2000 gallon cement water tank that was always overflowing, even in August. Originally there was 4 inch cement pipe that wound its way around Mt Pickett behind our house, finally we had our last water leak and couldn't find it in the woods. So a new sch 80 2" pipe was run overland all the way down the mountain to the site.

The solar array was a roof mounted system of two 35 W modules, amazingly enough this pretty much supplied all our power needs in the summer.

I miss those days and since then I have moved on to promote and educate the public on solar and energy efficiency at both non-profits and for profit companies.

Why do you use renewable energy systems?: secure energy supply (backup power), to reduce my carbon footprint, to teach others

In your own words, what else motivates you to use RE systems?: They are super cool!

How is everything with you, I picked interest on you after going through your short profile and deemed it necessary to write you immediately. I have something very vital to disclose to you, but I found it difficult to express myself here, since it's a public site.Could you please get back to me on:( mr.frankkwabena202@gmail.com ) for the full details.

Thanks God bless.
