Increase your wealth – reduce your cost of living – be environmentally friendly. Press release 5th Jan 2011

Dear all

After 3 years of attempting to show people that climate change is a reality, I have adopted the term, Environmental Destruction.

There is absolutely no doubt that we are destroying the very systems that support human life on earth.  This no matter whether we use terms like Global Warming, Global Weirding or Climate Change.

Yet we forget that there are alternatives that are cheaper, more planet friendly and easy (!) to implement.

We must always remember that we have been lent the earth by our children, not given it by our parents.  We need to safeguard this earth for our children.

When I tell people I can help them reduce their carbon footprint by 10% per annum, they don’t believe me.  We can actually dramatically reduce our cost of living and increase our wealth if us consumers decide to work together to make our world a better place.  We think we can’t do anything, but that is because our politicians and big business have told us that we need to be separate to be free.  But they collude and work together and why shouldn’t we?

There is no further time to waste.

If 100 people in a particular area need solar water heaters or energy efficient fridges or need to do grocery shopping and they do it together, they will automatically get better service and better prices.  Why do we think we have to do things alone to remain free?
Let’s avoid further environmental destruction.

Efergy Electricity Meter installed by qualified electricians: Press Release 9th November 2010

The Efergy e2 can now be installed by a qualified Electrician. If you don’t know which Efergy to buy, then buy the Single Phase e2 and if you need the three phase one, you can pay the electrician an additional R300 cash.

At the moment this is only available in Cape Town.

The kit includes the Efergy e2, the PowerStation recharger, 8 AA batteries (4 fully charged), 8 AAA batteries (fully charged), installation by a qualified electrician and setup of the device with your tariff (if you can supply your electricity account).

The product is only R100 more than our Efergy Kit including the recharger and batteries.
In order to keep these prices down, the meter will be installed within 3 weeks of payment.

Note: the Efergy can be installed quite easily by most people, but some of our potential clients have been asking us if it can be installed by an electrician. Hence this note.

NERSA allows grid-tie net-metering systems. Press Release 19th October 2010.

It seems like NERSA are allowing grid-tie net-metering systems as long as they are “under the radar.”

This means that as long as the systems never have a credit balance at month or year end, they are ok.

See Pick ‘n Pay and Villiera who have installed systems in the past month.

Security of supply using Net Metering. Press Release 12th October 2010.

Durban refinery shut due to major power failure in Durban.

We need security of supply. The fastest way to get this is with grid-tie inverters and net-metering. This will be at zero cost to the country. In fact it won’t be zero cost as it will be negative cost, i.e. profit.
