If you have easy digging ground that should work great, The ground here requires a digger.


Yeah, with GTI's ...I don't see the point seeing that companies in bed with the government are leaning towards charging the consumer to offload into the grid. GTI is great if you signed up years ago and had a binding contract with great monetary returns- but not today.

I accepted the challenge with respect to what I believe the new Standards are saying and moving to in the near future....their making it impossible to have the average bloke DIY his own solar off grid power supply lawfully and forcing them to stay on grid.
Of course, you can say "stuff you" I am going to do what I want on my land...but when it comes to selling your home, their may be some issues there...which again is why I am keeping inline as best I can with the Standards.

Instead of the one solar system, I will have several as mentioned earlier feeding certain sets of appliances.
If an essential appliance like a fridge stuffs up, simply sacrifice one system and connect to fridge while repairing the buggered system.
This way I remove total reliance on the one system should it fail and now have several backups to essential appliances.
Costly way to go, but I'm happy with that route as it gives me power to stick my middle finger up to the government and their "sponsored" list of "approved" companies.

My soil (or lack of) near the house is stuffed.
Gave up on the deep trench and going shallow with a cap of cement slabs.
