Does anyone have first hand experience (or live within) in Indonesia regarding solar systems, biomass, biogas, RMH, green building structures (besides the Green School)?
I am on a project with a tight schedule to develop a community using 100% locally generated, renewable energy.
Local skills and materials are what I would like to use, especially for maintaining the systems once they're finished.
I need to get some advice on these to avoid a long school of 'hard knocks'. Any comments are REALLY appreciated.
thanks

100% locally generated is a pretty narrow requirement. Can they make glazing for solar gain?

Sometimes the answer is not to cross an old bridge, nor to burn it, but to build a better bridge.

That's my field - 100% RE, 100% off-grid - i'm transitioning from single residential to community microgrids. Challenging to say the least!

Glazing and solar collectors is not the problem here in indonesia. It's heavily subsidized electric and LNG. So i am looking for practical things that people have already done here... to avoid re-inventing the wheel.
there's huge RE benefits here... equator solar angles, plenty of water (also a big downside), and lotsa biomass/biogas potential.
