Homemade wind and solar power systems are a great alternative to fossil fuel energy. Energy from wind and solar is renewable, sustainable and free to use. It is part of the “go green” trend and it’s getting more followers every year as the price of power goes higher and the cost of installation of homemade systems is going down. It is also a matter of economic profitability and cost reduction for every home owner; not to mention the need to have access to electricity off the grid for campers, RV or remote chalet owners.

Why should you build your own solar panels and wind power generator?

1-Save a lot of money on your electricity bill. Having your own wind and solar power systems adapted to your domestic needs can allow you to reduce your power bill or even let you live off the grid. Some power company may pay you when your meter is spinning backwards!

 

 

2-Save the earth using green renewable energy. Electricity is green and renewable as long as it comes from hydro power, sun power or wind power. Make your homemade system to power your house and use it to recharge your electric car battery!

 

 

3-Be at the forefront of the “go green” movement and inspire others. Install alternative power source to your home or RV and prove to your neighbours that it can be easily done. Leading the path to save the planet is rewarding in so many ways!

 

 

4-It can become a great hobby or diy project that will create enthusiasm. This is also an opportunity to become an expert. Get paid to install home solar panels and wind generator in your town. It can be a new source of income for you!

 

 

5-Increase the value of your property. Having a fully functional windmill and home solar panels with proof that you are living off the grid is a good investment. It might attract buyers who are concerned about environment but don’t have time or manual abilities to build their own system.
