I am in N Germany. We get a bit more sun than the Danes typically, but we're still 54N. Long days in the summer though :-). But every commercial farm/ workshop/factory roof has masses of solar. I assume there were grants / loans. None for domestic in my state.

As in Denmark, wind is our bigger asset. But the locals have issues with that (asshole behaviour from landowners hasn't helped). One can have a 10m tower without planning permission. :-). Not that anyone does. But I might. At least to run a fruit/veg dryer.

My dairy farm neighbours across the road are building a Biogas plant! Wonder if they might sell me some :-).
