Ingenious. But note how the Government aid agencies, big NGO’s and local state-owned power companies are temperamentally disinclined to get involved with little people doing such things privately.

There was an article several years ago about a teenage boy in Malawi who built windmills to power his village. My wife got me the book, The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind, which was very good. Unfortunately, all the do gooders got hold of him and turned him imto a prop for green conventions and international aid. He's attending Dartmouth College now.
