Make Natural Power

It's no secret that we are facing serious problems with our energy supply. Unfortunately, these problems are here to stay. Our entire fossil fuel based energy system is falling behind and is on the verge of not being able to keep up with the world's energy demands. The comfortable lifestyles that we have become accustomed to are in danger of becoming a thing of the past as we face the possibility of relapsing to a more austere lifestyle.

Although there is some merit to a more basic lifestyle such as being more active and healthier and decreasing consumerism and environmental damage, these aspects do not justify the pain and discomfort of reverting to a more Spartan existence. This isn't coming out of nowhere, there have been ample warnings that things were going downhill and likely going to get worse. For instance, here is a graph of electricity rates over the last 40 years.

Solar and Wind will Power our Future

Every day there is an almost unlimited supply of solar energy hitting this planet. Add that to the freely available wind power and you begin to get a feeling for how much free energy we could be accessing. You can get a better idea of the magnitude of the amount of energy available by looking at these facts from Wiki:

The amount of solar energy intercepted by the Earth every minute is greater than the amount of energy the world uses in fossil fuels each year.

Tropical oceans absorb 560 trillion gigajoules (GJ) of solar energy each year, equivalent to 1,600 times the world's annual energy use.

The energy in the winds that blow across the United States each year could produce more than 16 billion GJ of electricity-more than one and one-half times the electricity consumed in the United States in 2000.

Relative to our total global consumption, there is approximately 600 times more free energy available from wind, solar and thermal resources. We need to accept that the future of our energy system IS solar and wind power.

How can we protect ourselves from the spiraling energy price increases? How can we lower our electricity costs or even obtain it for free? How can we power our homes while living “off the grid”? The answer to all these questions is: We need to generate electricity using freely available solar and wind power.

Where do you Start?

Do you feel overwhelmed at how to do so? You shouldn’t. Thousands of average homeowners just like you are beginning to produce their own electricity. They are building their own solar panels and wind generators for home use. Initially, it may seem difficult to build your own wind turbine or a solar cell. However, with the right plans and guidance, this is a very do-able, fun and educational experience. The best part however, is that you will greatly decrease or even eliminate your electrical costs! You too can be energy independent!

Not only will you be decreasing your energy costs but you will also help the environment. Using carbon neutral power sources such as the sun and wind enables you to offset greenhouse gas emissions. Future generations and the earth will reap these benefits.

Start with the Right DIY plans.

Where can you find do it yourself plans to use to make your own windmill or solar panel? In the past it was people in lab coats working at universities that were designing wind turbines and solar cells. However, not anymore.

Make Natural Power has designed a comprehensive kit that will guide you, step by step, to energy independence. They have fine tuned their designs so that the plans will enable you to construct your own windmill and solar panel for less than $200! These are not only reasonably-priced to build but are also easy and effective. Use of these structures could enable you to reduce your electricity bill down to nothing.

If you compare the lifetime saving that will come from generating your own power to the cost of building your own power generation, it will be abundantly clear that this is one of the most cost effective investments you can make.
