Your Questions About Solar Generators For The Home

Michael asks…

If an upper class home in Haiti has one or more generators for electricity, what about a small retail store?

Would such a small retail store, or corner market, consider using a small wind turbine and/or solar panel if it is in a safe area of the main city? How would the UN or the World Food Program help with this research?
Can just one small corner store owner in the entire country get any protection from the UN or the World Food Program to at least run their store and try some alternative energy sources free of violence?

My next door neighbors are from there and recently returned.

There is no where safe in Haiti.

That is the UN at work.

My friend. The UN does nothing. My neighbors went back for her moms funeral. They had to wait until the day of the funeral to tell friends and then the did it at night because otherwise they would have been robbed.

Your generator wouldn’t be there a day before it was stolen and sold.

The UN is there as a token to say they do something. The armed drug lords are better armed then they are. Children have been raped in front of the soldiers and they do nothing because that is not part of their mandate.

This is the UN that never is talked about. It’s a joke and a farce.

Laura asks…

can solar panel and wind turbine generator system run for 6 month straight or longer?

I’m planning to work on a project and want to know first before I make my home green energy.

admin answers:

Solar panels currently being manufactured, have a design life of 20+ years.

Home-size wind turbines have a wide range of design lives. The turbine life is influenced by conditions of use — high winds, ice on the blades, etc.

I would recommend that you purchase your home-scale wind turbine from a seller who offers a guarantee to repair or replace the unit if it fails under normal use. A 5-year or 10-year guarantee period would be ideal.
