Renewable Energy Technologies

After becoming interested in “alternative energies” in the late 80s and early 90s, he put together several “stand-alone solar systems” which lead him to undertake studies in Renewable Energy Technologies at Ithica TAFE in Brisbane in 1999. Starting in 1996 on his family property near Woodford Qld. Australia, he has gained practical experience in building “stand alone systems” with 12volt, 24 volt and 48 volt systems and collecting and storing solar energy in systems ranging from 1.2 kWh to 42 kWh. He designed and owner built his family’s energy efficient Passive Solar Home which supplied all of its own electricity from 2001 until 2012. He then installed an interactive system which exports surplus electricity into the grid paying him around $4000 per year without his household getting an electricity bill.
