Generate Your Own Home Power \| Solar Panels

If, in your desire to be self-sufficient with regard to powering your home, you decide that you would like to go down the 'do-it-yourself' road and build your own solar panels, you will have to do a bit of homework and ascertain how much electricity you use over 12 months - check your power bills (while you're checking your usage check how much you have paid over that time, also!). Then divide the total yearly consumption by 375 to find out your average per day. The next thing to do is work out how large a system you will require. The average production of a panel 1 square yard in size is 90W/hour, so you will need to know what is the average per day of sunlight hours where you live - (get this from the weather bureau or whatever government department handles this sort of information). Multiply the 90W by the number of sunlight hours per day to give you the daily production of power from one panel, 1 square yard in size. If you then use your daily production from one solar panel and divide it into your daily average consumption rate, it will give you an idea of how many panels you will need to be totally self-sufficient in powering your home. Now this is where it gets really interesting because you have some choices: 1. You can set up a system which will meet all your power needs 2. You can implement a system which will meet a proportion of your electricity requirements and use the grid for the rest Whichever way you go, you can also opt to reduce your actual power consumption, through energy-saving products and a more thoughtful approach to how you run your home. Whichever way you choose to go, it will be a step in the right direction, saving yourself and the environment from further loss. And it is time to take that step.
