Powering Your Off Grid Retreat - Part One – Say No to Solar Panels!

in off-grid •  7 years ago 

Well that really depends what the other source was before switching to solar. If your on-grid source was coal per say it then it would make a huge difference. But if that source was perhaps hydro electric or maybe even natural gas then switching to solar might have less of an impact.

I probably should tossed that idea into my article somewhere.

Solar is is good i got another favourite I will write up about some time soon.
My off grid retreat will have solar without a doubt just not a huge set up.

I think the problem of waste has always roots in country's regulations for manufacturers. Focusing on as clean manufacture as possible and strong regulations of production byproduct disposal might make solar industry sustainable. Because chemical obtained as byproducts might be reused for other reactions rather than being freely disposed into the environment. Here is a nice article: https://greentumble.com/the-environmental-footprint-of-the-solar-industry/ about it as well.
