Solar Power 4 Home

Solar power for homes (power4home ) is becoming an increasingly popular method of powering some or all of your house. However many people ask the question "How much does home solar cost?"

There are two main methods of getting your house up and running on solar power electricity. Simply put, they are either professional installation or "do it yourself" (DIY) solar panel installation.

As you'd expect, professional installation is by the most expensive method. A recent article in the UK suggested that the cost of professional installation could be anything from £3,000 to £20,000 (approx $5,000 - $40,000 US). The article in the Independent went on to suggest that professionally installed systems could take up to 100 years to pay back the installation costs. In other words, professionally installed systems are out of reach of most everyday people who want to have solar power for home.

Realistically then, anyone who wants to make use of solar power in their house is going to have to look at the DIY options in order to get the lowest solar cost. The good news is that it can be possible to build your own solar panels for as little as $200 - that instead of paying someone else loads of money to set the system up, you can easily do it yourself with a little bit of DIY skills and some guidance.

Guidance can come from a variety of sources. There is a wealth of information available on the internet but perhaps the best way to do it is with the help of a guidebook dedicated explicitly to showing how to build a DIY solar power system (or power 4 home)

Such guidebooks will normally show all the steps required to go from knowing nothing to enjoying the benefits of home solar power electricity generation. From selecting all the components required and putting them together to wiring up the system to power your lights or appliances.
