Small is beautiful

This website is about microgeneration – creating electricity in your own home or community, preferably from renewable sources. There are lots of reasons why microgen’s a fantastic idea but basically I believe that small is beautiful. In other words, there’s just something intrinsically appealing about making electricity on your terms, taking responsibility for how your electricity is generated and the impact it has on the environment and society. That might not be the most thoroughly-argued statement but I plan to write about the issues and debates surrounding microgen in more detail on a regular basis. So please check back often and pitch in your thoughts in the comments.
