ATTN Working Groups: Please update your pages with mailing list and other contact info.
This working group is for the generation and distribution of electrical power for the Occupy Boston encampment. Technologies/initiatives include high-efficiency LED lighting, pedal-power, solar and wind! We are a subset of the Occupy Boston Information Technology Working Group and regular reports of our work are recorded in the minutes of the obit Working Group. Our meetings are not on consistent days of the week, but are specific to particular jobs, installations, maintenance, etc. If you would like to be added to our mailing list, go to one of the email contacts listed below.'
We have been working to develop a new pedal-powered generator. You can check out our progress here: http://pedalpower2thepeople.pbworks.com
We're also creating construction/operation documentation of the pedal generator for the benefit of other Occupy groups. It will be here: http://wiki.occupyboston.org/wiki/Pedal_Power
Want to help out? We are actively looking for contributions of re-chargeable marine deep-cycle 12 volt batteries as well as solar panels. If you know of a source for these, or have other ideas for ways to contribute your energies, please contact us at: energy@lists.occupyboston.org or dana@occupyboston.org
