Off the Grid in Idaho

North Idaho Connection

It seems that just about every post deals with a Silicon Valley startup, an innovation at schools like MIT or green computer moves at the likes of IBM, Dell and Microsoft.

So it pleases me when a note hits my inbox on more modest--but no less important--endeavors from Anywhere, USA. In this case, Idaho.

Backwoods Solar Electric of Sandpoint, Idaho specializes in off-the-grid solar installs. Their site is like a treasure trove of equipment (not just panels) and advice to help wean homes and businesses off the grid.

I've been informed that one of those businesses is the North Idaho Connection, an ISP that serves northern Idaho with broadband and wireless Internet (you can see the wireless coverage map here).

What local options are available to you? Sound off in the comments.

Thanks Alex!
