I’ve decided to take a little break from my Alternative Energy Made Easy series (although expect another great installation soon ) and list some of my favourite products and great deals that have been listed on our site.

TENESOL<TENESOL<TENESOL!!

Our latest special on Tenesol Panels is AWESOME – you won’t find them cheaper anywhere else! From R45 p/Wp to R25 p/Wp – that is 45% off on very good quality Solar Panels. I know I sound like a bit of a salesman, but seriously, this is a fantastic deal, so don’t miss out!

We collected take-out from the only restaurant in town, lit our candles and made ourselves comfortable on the country stoep. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I looked out in front of me and saw ….

I suddenly realized why my hosts found my enthusiasm funny, what I thought was a great town support of Earth Hour was actually rolling green fields full of sheep! I had a good laugh at myself. (more…)
