Inexpensive solar powered backup generator?

admin on September 8th, 2011

Want a backup generator with its solar panels included and can be used to hook up to important areas of the house. Maybe smaller generators for point to point hookup, i.e., one for the frig, one for the microwave and kerosene monitor, one for the main AC.. Don’t want an electrician having to do a lot of work and need something simple and safe if such exists. Thanks

A turn-key solar generator is suitable for your situation. Split into small pieces is not efficient.

Solar pannel question?

admin on September 4th, 2011

I understand solar power has great potential for buildings and as of now is best for streetlights, but how to make it better for buildings?
I read somewhere they’re only 25% effective, the other 75% of light bounces out
How can you make the light be transferred to electricity better and more effectively

It’s not something that can just be home remedied you would technically have to recreate the solar panel, power companies are forced to use some renewable energy, and therefore have switched their other sources such as clean nuclear to more coal based and petroleum based sources in order to offset the massive costs of upkeeping the solar fields.

As they’re extremely cost inhibitive and better left for use in emergency situations where cost makes them viable such as powering highway sign or emergency phones
