Yes, our web site needs updating, 3 years hmmmm ....... as I am AC Coupling now and trying to sort out my Inverter needs as a well known manufacturer has let me down.
Just one thing in RE is not the solution, everything must be seen in the whole.
For instance, In my opinion its pretty pointless using RE in a house or building that is not to Passive House insulation standards.
I think it is possible to raise a family and earn a living doing the hands on RE and surrounding tasks, but a more rounded skill base will be required.
Self Empowerment in RE is a great challenge and real rewarding especially when everything works sweetly.
Bon Courage.
