| SHPEGS — DIY Solar/Geothermal Electricity |  |
| rohar writes "SHPEGS is an open design not-for-profit project to design and prototype a base-load renewable electrical generation system suitable for moderate climates and built from common materials. The design centers around creating a local geothermal source with an efficient solar thermal water heater system and can be scaled from single residence to mega-scale. The heliostat system used in Europe`s first solar thermal plant could be used in a scaled-down SHPEGS system with Practical Solar`s small scale heliostats."Read more of this story at Slashdot.
