The HomeMadeEnergy Manual is a great step-by-step guide for anyone wanting to build their own solar or wind power generator. The decision to use solar or wind power for an alternative energy source is not only great for the environment, it’s also very good for your wallet. Let me explain.

The first homemade solar panel I built was a portable solar power system for just under $200. Now keep in mind that I had no idea what I was doing when I first decided I wanted to tackle this project. I had seen a couple of guides available on the internet so I just decided to do it. The HomeMadeEnergy Manual was the first guide that I purchased because it comes with such a well written manual.

The HomeMadeEnergy Manual covers several types of solar panel systems including a portable solar power system, a grid-intertied solar power system, a  grid-intertied solar power system with backup battery and an off-grid solar power setup. The off-grid solar power setup can completely eliminate you’re electric bill and in some cases you will be able to sell the excess power back to the electric company. Now how’s that for ‘going green’.

Another part that I found very helpful in the HomeMadeEnergy manual was where to get FREE solar panels. We pass these things everyday and I never though of using this resource.

Developing homemade wind power is also thoroughly discussed in this manual. A small wind turbine can be built for as little as $100. One thing to remember is that a homemade wind power generator is useless if there is no wind. A basic rule is that you want the average wind speed in the area to be around 10mph for the unit to be cost effective.

In my opinion, the HomeMadeEnergy manual is a must have for anyone wanting to build there own alternative energy source. We have a detailed company profile of HomeMadeEnergy at http://myenergyfacts.com or by Clicking Here.
