Excellent, personal abuse.

Feel free to tell us how it is that hundreds of watts of insolation per
square metre can either fail to be capured by a mesh absorber panel,
fail to be retained by adequate insultion, or fail to be transferred to
the house somehow.


All these have been discussed before. But to recap. Solar energy, in
the UK, is at a maximum when it is not needed. It is not possible to
store this energy for say five months until it is needed.


It is. CAT did this in an interseasonal store. Not cost effective for the
average house.
