Residential Net Zero

Residential utility customers can now have zero monthly billing!

Wikipedia describes Net Zero as the following.

Zero-energy building

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-energy_building  

With advancements in today's electronics it is possible to stop utility billing meters from spinning for days and weeks at a time or to net zero legally by battery banking storage and alternative energy sources like solar and wind. Needless this has some utility companies upset and they do not allow back-feed into their transmission lines. Pure sinewave National Grid electrical power is produced in 50 or 60 hertz depending which country the utility is located in. What that means is within one second it is bouncing up and down 50 or 60 times. ATS (automatic transfer switch) can isolate grid tied electrical power and from fossil fuel generators, alternative energy electrical power and many other options. This then is a switching breaking point free from utility grid electrical power providers to size residential homes daily wattage needs with these grid quality off the shelf components and taking their monthly billings to ZERO. 

Well if it is that dam easy to do this how in the heck do you start such a project? 

Very simple I say with 42 years as a retired master electrician, in small steps as your funding permits and keep adding till you reach the Net Zero goal for your usage. Electrical power is no more than NUMBERS sized, matched, adjusted, planned, engineered into any given electrical need. Producing more electrical power than you need is not difficult to accomplish if the NUMBERS are matched properly. Alternative electrical power is no more than adding different forms of green energy together and making the mix all operate together in harmony. 

Sounds interesting where can I buy such a product? 

Quality off the shelf components can be purchased from various vendors worldwide. The key here is to purchase only grid quality components even if the application will be operated off grid. Also any product must be able to mix with other grid quality components as system design calls for and have upgradable options. 

PLC (programmable logic controller) was first designed for industrial applications to run automotive factories. Others have caught onto this automation device and throughout the years many have made it there workhorse for many industrial and commercial applications. As has electrical utilities with their PLC SCADA for transmission, billing, troubleshooting, monitoring and other applications. So naturally the PLC is the chosen workhorse for green alternative electrical energy also. The trendy modern term for mixing up all these different forms of electrical power together is called a microgrid. Microgrid electrical power by design can be built in steps and if grid quality components were followed throughout than it is designed to play nicely with other microgrids of similar build or the National Grid or any other form of grid quality electrical power. 

Well by now you are either tickled pink or could care less? 

Either way there are legal easy steps to stop utility meters from spinning and if you are one of those that wants a clean, safe, reliable and efficient electrical microgrid than check this out. (There are grid quality products that can switch from various electrical power sources so fast that clock or computer resets are not necessary.  The old days are gone by the wayside of when utility power was lost and there was a 10 second delay before the generator kicked in by auto start methods) With all this mix of new wonderful tecknowledgey called microgrid electrical power greenhouse gases from fossil fuels can be greatly lowered or stopped altogether. Battery banking alone can take any auto start existing fueled backup generator to 70% lower fuel consumption or stop it altogether.

Thank you for your time and if microgrid electrical power is your next investment into the lowering your monthly utility usage than please feel free to contact us with your needs.

Electrical Power The Witches Brew Of Net Zero Power Sources

Grid quality electrical power is a maze of transmission cables and transformers, generators and a host of electrical and electronic equipment. Understanding that generating electrical power in either 50 or 60 hertz for grid quality electrical power to customers worldwide, means a monthly billing for each one. This attachment to electrical power source has many switching capabilities for Net Zero, Net Metering capabilities for residential, commercial, industrial customers worldwide.

With the advancement in grid quality pure sinewave inverters grid quality electrical power can be matched to any grid tied electrical billing usage. These smart microprocessor controlled inverters can pick and choose which source of electrical power to operate the required wattage being operated. With electrical power transfers that are so fast between different sources that computer or clock resets are not necessary. There are many grid quality vendors on today's market that offer off the shelf products that can be mixed and matched to any wattage requirements.

By taking DC battery banking float voltage and storing this DC voltage than can produce massive amounts of electrical power in many different AC voltage ranges from KW, KV, MW options. What this means for electrical utilities customers is that they can size battery banks to their required needs and tell the electric meter to stay off for days or weeks at a time by this storage method until battery charging may be required.

Grid quality electrical power can be adjusted and made to operate efficiently with other devices as required to clients operating wattage numbers. Solar, wind and any hybrid electrical energy can all be gathered and made to operate together efficiently with quality grid tied products from various quality vendors.  

PV Solar uses no battery storage they generate grid quality electrical power from micro inverters in either single or 3 phase voltage options.  Net Metering has angered some utility providers and they do not allow backfeed into their grid systems. ATF (automatic transfer switch) solves the backfeed issue to utility grid electrical power and takes the grid off line during the day while the sun shines. PV Solar can also have battery bank control and be a switchable storage source of DC to AC for cloudy days and nighttime operation. A battery bank will allow the utility grid meter to be stopped for days or weeks at a time before charging may be required,

The maze and Rubik's cube of products required to make this new electrical power possible may appear to be a Witches Brew of devices?  Not so, it simply is just an investment in grid quality off the shelf products matched to clients operating wattage requirements.

How to Diagnose Common Residential Electrical Issues

When it comes to diagnosing common electrical issues in  residential applications 

Understanding what Line, Load, Switch Leg, Neutral, Ground and all related wiring, circuit breakers, devices, contactors, appliances and more are necessary to properly diagnose any known fault issue.

Grid tied electrical energy 120 240 volts as used in most homes in the US is very dangerous and can kill if improperly handled because it is always going to take the least resistance to ground.

The best advice is to turn off voltage at MAIN BREAKER before attempting any diagnose or repair and if you are unsure on how to tackle the issue at hand call in a professional who has the skills to perform the task for you.

With the advancement in today's off the shelf technologies and internet control of grid electrical power or off grid electrical power can be easily matched to any wattage load using just wind & solar with battery banking storage, this technology is referred to as aka mini microgrid.  

By producing more primary KV voltage than the secondary KW voltage and wattage requirements ensures a reliable source of electrical power for remote locations or grid tied switching locations. 

 Power companies and others in the US are already using these new technologies by charging lithium ion battery banking during off peak hours and bringing back online during peak hours.
