This week we checked in with solar superhero Klaus Dohring, whose company Green Sun Rising has installed 48 solar systems across the North in eight years — saving more than 330,000 litres of diesel fuel from power generation.

Of course, saved fuel is also saved money — both for the community in volume needed to be brought in by barge and for individuals relying on diesel to also heat their homes and facilitate hunting expeditions.

Solar power is about as win-win a situation as you can possibly hope for. You install the panels in your micro-grid, like your roof. Done. Free power.
