Solar Power, Wind Power, Save Money – Oh My!

Fran Murray asked:

The most common alternatives to power your home are solar energy and wind power. These two forms of energy are easy to install in your home. The two sources of energy will save you a ton of money and increase the value of your property. The immerging technology for both forms of energy is extremely positive. With the economy in an upheaval and people scrambling for ways to save cash, solutions have to be found. Throughout history people have been resourceful; this time period will be no different.

Most people do not have the extra $10,000 to $22,000 to invest in a solar panel system. Most people don’t have the resources or the room to built huge windmill power system. What if you could have either source of energy? What about having both? What if you could save money a ton of money without investing the thousands of dollars the average company would charge to set up a “green” power source? Does $200 sound reasonable? Read on!

The best thing is that you can do it yourself. You can build (from parts you can find a local hardware store) and install everything on your own. Nope, you don’t need to be an engineer to build a simple solar panel. There are guides with video presentations that have been very effective for people who want to build their own solar panel.

Before making the solar panel, I was advised to decide where I should put the solar panel so that it would get the best sun exposure. The actual making of the solar panel was not complicated, but it is a bit labor intensive and will take more than a few hours to complete. The guide that I used was insightful and extremely easy to read, no “techy language” and very straightforward.
