It is amazing that some people can create confusion about a country. There is power in Mexico, you can visit the webpage of the power company in Mexico if you want at: http://www.cfe.gob.mx Mexico even exports electricity to other countries. I am sure there are small towns or areas where there is no electricity, and solar power would be of great use, but that is not a general issue. Thank you for your understanding.
I winter in Mexico were there is no power. This book is a must for all who wish to live the solar life. It is a wealth of information and a very good read.
My husband who has an avid interest in sustainable energy really enjoyed this book. He liked it so much he bought one for a realator friend of ours who is also into sustainable energy.
Essential catalog of energy related items punctuated with non commercial advice and information.
Great as a reference on a huge range of re products. It’s not a text book though, and I came across little things that are incorrect.
