Try to be EXTREMELY mindful when you are getting rid of something or purchasing something casually. The embedded #energy for everything - regardless of how cheap it is - can be mind-boggling.

If you are running a Sunsynk inverter with their cloud crap and have now been spammed with a web dialogue you can't pass without agreeing to their marketing crap you'll probably want to know that you can annoy them immensely by complaining to policyqueries@sunsynk.com and reminding them of their own privacy policy, making a subject access request and demanding they correct the data.

or if you are smart just rip out their crap and use homeassistant or similar

> The #solarpunk future isn’t speculative fiction. It’s 23 million solar systems, 40 million people, and a template for how #infrastructure gets built when you’re not stuck defending the past.

A very accessible look into how cheap and easily accessible #solar panels are changing society for the better in #Africa, why that trend is likely to continue, and how this could be a blueprint for positive change in developing / emerging economies worldwide.

Here is the link to the article that says what's happening in Pakistan.

I just read a news that the #solar boom in Pakistan coincided with the rapid depletion of water tables, perhaps a sign that capitalism will derail the #solarpunk revolution. I'm making a film that envisions a future where profit doesn't drive change, and clean energy happens with social justice. I need your support to make it 🙏 Share or donate if you can!

Bislang wurde immer gesagt: #Solar- und #Windkraftanlagen brauchen immer ein Backup, weil sie die #Netze nicht stabil halten können. Inzwischen werden immer mehr Solar- und Windparks gebaut, die #Regelleistung erbringen. Das Ziel muss sein, in Kombination mit #Batteriespeichern fossile Kraftwerke in wenigen Jahren zeitweise ganz vom Netz nehmen zu können.

I think I understand why the worst people are excited about building new #nuclear power plants, but are cold (or even antagonistic) towards #renewables.

It's about centralization and centralization is about control. Renewables spread out power generation, even sometimes generating power at the point of use.

Renewables are democratic; massive power stations, no matter what they are burning, are autocratic. It's as simple as that.

#SolarPowered Raspberry / Orange / Banana Pi or NVIDIA Jetson ? ☀️

« That's why we designed the PV PI, a simple HAT that powers your Pi, or other single board computer, from any high capacity 12V LiFePO4 battery while providing up to 10A of true MPPT solar battery charging ! »
