Understanding RENEWABLE ENERGY and how to start living OFF-GRID with Rhian Berning
Manage episode 312652465 series 3240482
Sahara Thagunna, host of Earth Chats, delves into renewable energy and off grid living with Rhian Berning, Environmental Scientist and owner of Eco.Atlas.
Some questions answered...
1. How long have you been living off the grid and what inspired this transition?
2. What does living off the grid entail and what are a few things people might overlook?
3. Can explain your energy set up at home? Your family size, appliances and how many solar panels you have/how much energy you use on average? And what back up you have? What are some struggles you faced when transitioning to off grid living?
4. I think one thing that holds people back from going off grid is the investment. Would you mind sharing a bit on the money side of things and how much people can expect to invest if they want to go 100% off the grid?
5. For someone wanting to go off the grid, but isn't really in a place to make the full investment in one go, is it possible to transition one step at a time and make the investment overtime?
