6/11/2023 – This morning Dan and Paul got working on an energy retrofitting project. Generators have been the backbone of energy here at Sawbill since our opening due to us being completely off the grid, however, that all changed in November when we officially got on the grid, so there have been several energy-related projects being done to support this transition. These specific Marathon Generators have been in use for around 15 years and were used not only for energy production, but the excess heat produced by them was used to support the central heating on the property for heating buildings as well as hot water. These generators will get packaged up and shipped away this week, but we will keep two backup diesel generators to power the property in case the power on the grid goes out.  – Anna
