pv solar
Water pump fountains powered by solar power are a fantastic way of adding an attractive, tranquil feature to your home and garden but without the high electric bills!
The great news is that now you no longer need to buy an expensive water pump fountain that comes with a solar power kit as you can make your own solar panels to generate electricity for your garden appliances!
Not only can you use your own home-made DIY solar panels for water fountains but also for garden lights, garden appliances and even outdoor or garage based refrigerators – all running off clean, free electricity – at no cost to you and no cost to the environment.
If you have space to add extra solar pv cells on to the roof of your home as well as your yard or garden then you may even generate surplus electricity which you could use to heat your home or power your household appliances.
Most of the materials you need to make your own solar panels can be bought from a local DIY hardware store. Solar cells generate electricity using photovoltaic (PV) cells which are measured in kilowatt peak (kWp). Kwp is the amount of energy that the cell can generate in full sunlight. The cells are made from layers of semiconducting material (usually silicon) which creates an electrical field when sunlight hits the layers.
If you generate more electricity than you need with your DIY solar panels you can even sell the surplus back to the grid!
Do you want to save money on your electric bills? Did you know it’s possible to build solar panels yourself for less than $200!
Don’t waste days or weeks, as I did, trawling the internet looking at complicated instructions that didn’t make sense. I found this this low cost guide that gives you simple step-by-step instructions at http://www.free-home-electricity.com
The guide even has videos to explain how to make solar panels and wind turbines. It even gives advice on selling surplus electricity back to the grid. What are you waiting for? Get building and save money!
