Re: [wastewatts] Solar roi

Yea that's what I was thinking. I've been there 3x and have had brown/black outs every time. 3days was the longest. They also have a rainy season so not sure how solar would preform in the monsoons but I have 2 listeroids I was planning on taking the 10/1 with me. And selling the 20/2 being much closer to china there I'm hoping to get solar panels for considerably less than the cost here.

Thank you

A ground source heat pump is much more efficient than an air source heat pump. They can run off solar, but it requires a pretty big array. $0.26 / kWh is moderately high, but the brownout issue should seal the deal.
