A large number of households are turning to residential solar energy to meet their energy needs. This makes a lot of sense as by replacing traditional energy sources with solar energy consumers stand to make large financial savings as well as helping the environment recover from the global warming crisis we face.
Due to the large expense involved in purchasing a retail solar power system and having it installed (costs are usually upwards of 00) a lot of households are choosing to build their own systems for a fraction of the cost (around 0). These systems are built entirely using readily available components, which you assemble by following an instruction guide you can purchase online.
So why should you build your own DIY solar power kit?
Cost saving: let’s face it in this day and age we could all do with a little extra cash, implementing a DIY Solar Power kit will not only save you thousands of dollars off a retail system but you will also reap the benefit of using cost free energy.
Environment: Solar energy is one of the cleanest forms of energy man can produce, giving off no harmful by-products and helping out the environment by replacing traditional, environmentally damaging energy resources.
Fun and educational: It’s a fun project you can get your family and friends involved in, it will also help raise awareness in your family and community about environmental issues and energy conservation
You can configure your house to be totally solar dependant, or alternatively convert your house to use a hybrid system for its energy needs. A hybrid system is when you compliment traditional energy sources with some solar. This is ideal for people wanting to be a little more liberal with their energy usage, without paying more money or damaging the environment further.
