187 - The Ripple Energy Episode

In Episode 187 Gary looks at how you can get a share of a wind turbine or solar farm in a discussion with Sarah Merrick from Ripple Energy There are situations where some people might not be in a position (either financially or structurally) to do something like add solar panels to their roof.People who rent, for example. People who live in houses covered by listed building status. People who don’t have a roof because they live in an apartment block. How are they supposed to gain from, say, solar panel installation? They shouldn’t be excluded from the energy transition because of that.This is why companies like Ripple Energy are a bit of a godsend for people in those situations.This season of the podcast is sponsored by Zapmap, the free to download app that helps EV drivers search, plan, and pay for their charging.Links:Ripple Energy website - Join Ripple and save on your billsA new method boosts wind farms’ energy output, without new equipment - - A Cool ThingRenewable energy: Customer-owned wind turbine to be built - - Ripple Energy in the news.Episode produced by Arran Sheppard at Urban Podcasts: https://www.urbanpodcasts.co.uk(C) 2019-2023 Gary Comerford Social Media:Patreon Link: http://www.patreon.com/evmusingsKo-fi Link: http://www.ko-fi.com/evmusings EVMusings: Twitter https://twitter.com/MusingsEvand Facebook http://www.facebook.com/The-EV-Musings-Podcast-2271582289776763Octopus Energy referral code (Click this link to get started) https://share.octopus.energy/neat-star-460'So, you've gone electric?' on Amazon : https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07Q5JVF1X'So, you've gone renewable?’ on Amazon : https://amzn.to/3LXvIckUpgrade to smarter EV driving with a free week's trial of Zapmap Premium, find out more here https://evmusings.com/zapmap-premium
