Stop Paying for electricity-Start selling instead of Buying Electricity With Solar or Wind Energy
January 23rd, 2009
When considering generating your own home made energy there are two main natural sources that are available in almost any place you live in- Solar Energy and Wind Energy. While wind power is a great energy source in some areas, it may not be practical in other areas where the average wind is too low. On the other hand solar energy is available in every corner of the planet. One draw back of solar energy when compared to wind energy, in those places where both are practical, is the fact that the wind blows usually day and night, while the sun shines only during the day.
Before embarking on such worth while project here are 8 important points to consider:
- What is the most suitable source of energy for that particular area? For instance in areas where high averages wind is available maybe Wind Power is the better choice. On the other hand for those leaving in areas where the skies are clear and sunny most of the time, solar energy may be the best choice.
- What is the amount of power you normally use? Looking on recent electrical bills may provide all the information needed.
- Starting small and learning the operation and the bits and bytes of the system before expanding to larger scale and becoming completely energy efficient.
- Depends on the state and specific location, many power companies are subsidizing the price they pay you per Kilowatt you get into the grid and it is much higher than what you pay per Kilowatt for home use. Therefore it is much more beneficial to sell all the solar or wind energy produced and continuing to use the electricity from the power company.
- Building your own system is always significantly lower in cost than having a commercial system professional installed.
- It is important to find easy to follow plans that are proven and tested by many others.
- It pays very handsomely to get good information on where to buy the key components for the lowest possible cost or even where you can get them for free.
- It is of great benefit to find someone that can advice and help with answers and tips once you start building and using the system
