In this day and age of green living and penny pinching the quest to make solar power and harness it for one’s needs grows with every passing day. I’m sure you’re at least contemplating it and looking for affordable ways to create and use it in your everyday life; if not for the planet then at least for your pocket book.
Making your own solar and wind power for less than $200
Solar energy like any other kind of energy can be used to cover your day to day home power usage needs… It is pretty simple to understand and comprehend… You use solar panels to absorb the sun’s rays and resultant heat. The heat is converted into energy and stored into batteries or cells and used at a later time… Its that simple, don’t let anyone tell you different. It really is that simple. You have just made solar power!
Making your own solar and wind power for less than $200
When looking to utilize solar power or adding a setup to your home you can either have some one do it for you or you can do it yourself. Having some one install it for you can be pretty expensive (to the tune of 10K+) for a task that you can probably easily do yourself over a long summer weekend (with some guidance of course). I recommend doing it yourself as a fun DIY project. At the low end you can build your own solar power unit for under $200.00 using materials you can easily pick up at your local home depot; and for a slightly higher budget you can build an outstanding setup.
