Swedish term or phrase: gårdsverk?
Vad är syftet med ett gårdsverk?
Syftet är att spara pengar och miljö, bli mindre beroende av extern elkraft och dess höga kostnader och känslan av att känna sig självförsörjande. De som inte har så stor elförbrukning säljer överskottet, minskar vår klimatpåverkan och får en intäkt till gården de inte hade fått i annat fall.


I'm trying to think of a succinct term for this. I know what it is, it's one of those small wind turbines of the type that Mr. Cameron was recently asked to remove as he hadn't obtained the necessary planning permission. I was thinking of 'wind turbine for domestic and light commercial use', but that's a bit wordy!
