[Poll] New SubForum - Energy Storage
 
EcoRenovator has subforums for a number of topics - from Heat Pumps, through Solar and Wind, to Conservation and even Gardening. A topic becoming increasingly popular in discussion about energy (especially renewable) is how to store it.

So what would you say to creating a new subforum for Energy Storage? For both large- and home-scale, theoretical possibilities and DIY projects.

I like the idea. As more EV cars get older and their batteries become available the energy storage for homes DIY will increase greatly.

Very interesting topic. Lets see if there is interest!

Perhaps just rename the "Solar Power" section to something like "Solar Power and Energy Storage"?

Energy Storage?
 
What type of Energy Storage? Electrical?

Batteries: Buy or built? How to select them? What types are best? How to configure them? how to meter them?How to charge them? How to test them? Shock hazards. What kind of tools, cables etc. etc.

Yeah, this might be a good topic! And configuring PV, charge controllers and inverters could be a part of it too.
Integration of 240ac or 120ac power produced into your home's electrical system. Metering AC usage..

Or, maybe batteries should be a standalone subform.

There would also be thermal storage for HVAC and hot water.
