Hopefully, we're getting the #solar panels installed today! It's been delayed and delayed because the weather has been too bad to work on the roof. It's a nice morning, so fingers crossed.
It's just the panels, the electrical work to hook them up will be scheduled once they are all in place (and paid for).
Two things I want from a cloudy day when it comes to my solar panels and various batteries I want them charging - the house batteries get charged, and the EV gets charged. The latter has happened today, the former should be there with an hour or two. This is important during storm season here in Texas. Since the EV is fine for several days, I'll leave it unplugged for a few days so I can prioritize the house batteries with any excess being sold back to the grid.
Hey, #HoosierMast, I’d like to get some solar panels installed on my roof, and I’m intimidated because I know there’s a lot of scammy companies out there. Anyone have any advice, on installers or literally anything else #solar?
It's very clear how desperate green tech advocates are to paint the current developments as a win for the climate. But by doing so they only reinforce the status quo.
In 2023, #solar PV and wind comprised about 80% of global generation capacity additions (99% in Australia). Compelling market-based evidence solar PV and #wind are the best options for new generation capacity https://buff.ly/3JDUdMH
Last Friday, I set out to do something fun: capture the rotation of the sun! The challenge with this is that the sun rotates very slowly - roughly one rotation every 27 days. I captured images every 5 minutes from about 8AM to 5PM and then stuck them all together in a time lapse.
Now that the longer days are here, solar production at the house has gone up a lot, compared to winter, even with one panel down, due to a broken microinverter. I’m glad Enphase and our local solar installer are providing good service and warranty repair. Thanks, Highpoint Solar. #Enphase#solar#solarpower#homesolar
Did you know that putting floating solar on only 10% of the surface of all the reservoirs that humans have built could provide 110% of the electricity that we now are producing? Well, now you do.
