    • Category Renewable energy issues
    • Category description As electricity for computers is a main issue in Africa and many other contries, we welcome people to share their experiences on using locally produced renewable energies to provide electicity for computers:
      - solar energy

      etc.
      This is also the place to share experiments on related issues:
