Local Energy Solutions

Solar will be best almost everywhere but some places will need other sources. The best source of energy for a community is determined by their immediate environment:

• What sources of energy exist?
• What technologies exist to exploit those sources?
• What is required to sustain this exploitation?
• What effects does that exploitation have on the environment?

A diverse energy profile is necessitated not by a lack of faith in any one technology or an inherent need to ‘diversify’ but by the individuality of locality.
