it always seems to be about cash...
cash for solar panels, cash for a turbine etc
I keep thinking about using a hub dynamo built into a wheel, with fairings, mounted ontop of the shed to charge a battery...

Turbo trainer in the house but turning a dynamo wheel.
Good exercise and free power! -

I reckon you could relatively happily charge anything upto a modern laptop with this kind of setup trickle-charging a large usb cache battery for the house. It's not going to give you a hot shower or fry your falafel though, so it's barely going to dent bills/dependency

Very interested in energy independence, I guess the most direct interpretation of 'off-grid'. Would love the opportunity to create a passive house at some point in the future.
