Скачать или смотреть Solar in Every Town - Solar for everyone, the solution to an affordable, net-zero grid

Gary Holden says the secret to building a 100% renewable electricity grid is to build solar in every town, combine it with energy storage and let consumers buy the energy as a virtual power plant for their homes.
The idea reduces grid upgrade costs, produces the cheapest energy and allows everyone to have solar, even folks who have trees, roofs not suitable for solar and especially those who can't afford to buy their own solar.
We caught up with Gary Holden at the Decentralised Energy Forum in Whistlers B.C. where he was presenting his ideas to the decentralized energy industry. Holden is the managing director of Lodestone Energy in New Zealand where by adopting this approach their goal is to install 1 megawatt of solar per day. Holden is the former CEO of Pulse Energy and TransAlta in New Zealand and also the former CEO of ENMAX, based in Calgary, Alberta in Canada.
