As any one that has read this blog is aware I have been talking about setting up an eco resort hotel in Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, anyone’s guess, maybe even the Philippines. I have a few minor consideration first and foremost the scuba diving should be some of the best in Asia. One of the things that I would hope to do is to create a MPA of sorts and educate the locals to eco issues of their homes and to create projects to find a good cheap way of rebuilding reefs that have been destroyed by man or nature. I also want the resort to be really eco with as small a carbon footprint as possible ideally to be carbon natural or to be carbon negative and for it also to be as self sustaining as possible for energy and food which is specific form of energy.

I have always liked the notion of solar power and for the resort we will have the basic water heater system of drums painted black but then the hard work begins on trying to find a cheap easy way to generate electricity for lights fans and refrigeration. An eco resort hotel is going to have lots of sunshine when the customers are there when the sun is not out then only a small percentage of electricity will be needed for maintenance and security. That makes solar attractive but solar power is still very expensive.

Wind, as I am reading and understanding, is getting to be almost as cost efficient as coal and natural gas. With an island resort in the tropics you are going to get trade winds just about every day but will it be enough to meet the demand of the resort is the question?
