Solar is now cheaper than coal
This year, one of the most important developments for humanity has been achieved. Solar electricity is cheaper than coal. + The Nanticoke Generating Station in Ontario, once North America's largest coal plant, will be turned into a solar farm. + India is on track to deploying 100+ gigawatts of solar…
Is biography destiny?
Does what happened in your past equal your future? Only if you locked in beliefs based on what happened. If you allow your self-image to be defined by the past, then you'll stay on the same track with the same kind of life and results. To break free of the…
Memorized Emotions
When you think of that person, or that place, or that group, or that time...you feel it all over again. But it's over. It has been over - yet you still feel the same way - and it's eating you up. You have memorized the emotion. You have anchored…
The Beholder
Two people stand side by side and look out at the same world. One sees twice the gravity, and another sees flight. What do you see?
The World is Your Looking Glass
Frown at it, and it will frown back. Smile at it, and it will smile back. Your world is your reflection.
Forgive and be happy
If you walk around being pissed off at somebody, or feeling like they victimized you, then it will affect your happiness. That is, your happiness will be conditional upon you not including these other people, because when you do you are not happy, but instead produce hate, anger or…
Non-Attachment
In 2014, I stood in front of our home for hours with hundreds of others (firefighters, neighbors, friends, police) and watched our house burn to the foundation. "Home" and everything in it, was lost. If we become attached to things, associating things with who we are, we have a…
Assembly Required
Having a great life doesn't just happen by itself. You have to create a vision for your life, and decide to create it - on purpose. What does the rest of your life look like? Are you going to "wait and see"? - or cause what you want to happen?
Standing still is falling behind
If you aren't learning all the time in a world that is, you are falling behind. What and how are you learning today?
Stop Torturing Yourself
"Whenever he thought about it he felt terrible. And so, at last, he came to a fateful decision. He decided not to think about it." - John Roger & Peter McWilliams, Life 101 Pessimism can only survive on a diet of negative thoughts. Stop feeding your mind these kinds…

Hi Larry
Thanks for the updates – solar power and wind power is the future. We have to get rid of coal and fossil fuels sooner than later so the updates in your post are much appreciated.
Your new home will be totally environmentally sound -congratulations. The 30KW solar array sounds like you will have quite a large home. An average home would need 8.5KW of energy for normal functioning – so 30KW is huge. Do you know the voltage and amperage output of the solar array? Just curious – something else I have in mind that I want to work on.
Just a quick update at my end. I’m just about complete with my prototype of an “on board” charging system for BEVs and PHEVs. Should eliminate the range anxiety issue for EVs.
Thanks

you mentioned India, Ontario, OK and China….what is US doing?
when do you get to live in your new house?
Larry,
Congrats on your new homes energy efficiency. I have a 4 zone variable geothermal system with the de-superheater potable water heating option and a 17 kw solar system in place and I enjoy them every month!
Nancy, you asked “what is the US doing?”. Our governments are subsidizing renewable energy so working Americans can afford to install them. Our energy costs are low compared to the world and the subsidies grow the renewable energy base one home at a time.
