Finding the Right Alternative Energy Solution for You (clue: Rhymes with molar, polar, and ¡Hola!)
--:--
Hi, I'm Jon Warncke. Welcome to this practical guide to shedding load-shedding. In this episode I:Briefly touch on various energy systems and settle pretty quickly on solar power.Find out if you can go totally off the Eskom grid and how much that costs.How to reduce your energy costs hugely BEFORE you go and get a quote.Learn about the various parts of a solar power system.Learn about various load-shedding solutions, from cheapest to most expensive. Lead Acid VS Lithium Ion batteries (do NOT buy lead acid if you can avoid it)Experts' recommendations for how much power you probably need at a ballpark of what that may cost. This series is totally free, has no sponsors or ads (yet), and I reckon I've spent over 100 hours or more producing it, so far. It's a personal project, a portfolio piece, a passion project. Please help me spread it far and wide by tapping the appropriate buttons or mentioning the show to friends over a coffee. Yes, it can only be coffee. Tea drinkers and other weirdos need not apply.I make podcasts for other people. YOU could be other people by checking out my website or my LinkedIn.Huge thanks to my guests in this episode:Shayne Acar (A Car?) (Akahhh?)
