October 14 2009
The 13the of october we have been to the district Garsfontein for our last measurings.
This district is a midclass district with ordinary working people; couples are working both to have a decent income.
We experienced that that the subject of energy saving lives a lot in this group. And people are very open for each saving suggestion, from suggestions related to a simple telelephone charger or de-icing of the deep freeze.
People also are keen to know what the electriciy usage is of the swimming pool pump with a filter. You might think: ordinary people with a swimming pool? But with average temperatures during a couple of months of 30 degrees and more, a swimming pool is really necessary.
Yesterday we have been also busy with our personal learning aims; I realised that one doesn’t look frequently to his own personality. But I am changed these days; my colleague found that even inspiring to see. That is nice to hear.
Back to the daily things. In the latest SSDC newsletter people are invited to cooperate in a Plugwise and Wattcher test: we tested the Wattcher over here and it works quite interesting. It really contributes to creating awareness on energy consumption.
