Camelot Members Annual Green Electric Generation

[ExiledTyke]

As per my signature I've only taken a small stake in DW as like others I'm not wholly convinced by this. This issue does make me wonder how much the government's attitude to onshore wind has had an impact on Ripple finding suitable locations in England. Which now makes me wonder is it worth reserving for project 4 (I've a small amount of capacity left plus a PHEV coming soon).

Cheers, thats a confirmed 9 in DW now but there will be others.

Is the PHEV on order ?, if so what's the battery capacity ?

Just 13.8kWh

Have you added my DW capacity, also our EV storage is now 162 kWh, added a 3rd EV for the children.
The 71kwh EV is going at the end of this month to be replaced by a 91 kWh EV on sep 1st.

Already have the DW, just a 20kWh increase in EV to add as I already had your EV's down at 142kWh.

Update time,
A few more members, plus other improvements within the membership on the secret list.

Heading down the home straight now towards the mythical 1GWh of annual renewable generation and now over 5MWh of storage.

In an average year 130 Camelot members will generate 719 MWh of renewable electricity onsite and 216 MWh remotely.

Onsite Generation
PV - 655 MWh
Wind - 62 MWh
Hydro - 2 MWh
Total - 719 MWh

Remote Generation via Coop's
Ripple GF - 45 MWh
Ripple KH - 146 MWh
Ripple DW - 21 MWh
Hydro - 4 MWh
Total - 216 MWh

Annual Generation TOTAL - 935 MWh (or average per member 7.19 MWh)


AND


The same 130 Camelot members have a combined 5,111 kWh of onsite Energy Storage capacity.

Home Batteries – 1,831 kWh
EV Batteries - 2,391 kWh
Hot Water Storage - 613 kWh
Thermal Mass Storage - 276 kWh
Energy Storage Capacity TOTAL - 5,111 kWh (or average per member 39.31 kWh)


Keep em coming, there must be more of you out there generating and storing.
Publicly reply to this thread or PM me with your PV (kW installed or annual kWh), Ripple project, Co-op or other generation. Alternatively add it to your sig like many do and I’ll come across it sooner or later.

And now EVs, hotwater and thermal mass storage.
EVs - gross battery size or even EV model if you don't know.
Hot Water / thermal stores - Tank size in litres.
Storage heaters – Heat capacity (kWh) or power (kW) or even brand / model numbers.
Under floor heating - mass or volume of concrete slab.

This month I am mostly impressed by the energy storage capacity of the membership.

Look at it and I can't help but be impressed with the fluidity it represents.

[dangermouse]

Here's another small contribution .. thinking ahead to next winter, I've added another 3.5kWh of battery to my system, for a total capacity of 12kWh.

That'll probably be my last, as I'm running out of space in the cupboard where it all lives, but who knows?

Update time,
A few more members, plus other improvements within the membership on the secret list.

I have added a couple of “associate members” to my secret list. These are family members of Camelot members who have installed a system on their property or bought into the Ripple Coop projects, and crucially the Camelot member had some significant bearing on it.

For example, someone on here persuaded their sibling to install a solar and battery system and another bought some Ripple project for their grown up children. I had previously indicated that the family member could register with this website even if they did not ever post. In hindsight, that was pretty pointless but I also don’t want the stats to be skewed, hence adding them as additional members keeps the correct average per member (full or associate) maintained.


In an average year 135 Camelot members will generate 738 MWh of renewable electricity onsite and 222 MWh remotely.

Onsite Generation
PV - 674 MWh
Wind - 62 MWh
Hydro - 2 MWh
Total - 738 MWh

Remote Generation via Coop's
Ripple GF - 45 MWh
Ripple KH - 149 MWh
Ripple DW - 24 MWh
Hydro - 4 MWh
Total - 222 MWh

Annual Generation TOTAL - 960 MWh (or average per member 7.11 MWh)


AND


The same 135 Camelot members have a combined 5,182 kWh of onsite Energy Storage capacity.

Home Batteries – 1,902 kWh
EV Batteries - 2,391 kWh
Hot Water Storage - 613 kWh
Thermal Mass Storage - 276 kWh
Energy Storage Capacity TOTAL - 5,182 kWh (or average per member 38.39 kWh)

And now, if you have a family member you have coerced into installing a system, buying into a Ripple project, buying an EV, I will add them as an associate member.

Other types of storage too, EVs, hotwater and thermal mass storage.
EVs - gross battery size or even EV model if you don't know.
Hot Water / thermal stores - Tank size in litres.
Storage heaters – Heat capacity (kWh) or power (kW) or even brand / model numbers.
Under floor heating - mass or volume of concrete slab.

I've got underfloor heating which is in approx. 5.5 cube of concrete.
