Can I buy solar silicon cells only and assemble my own solar panel made of insulated materials like plywood?
Photovoltaic electricity is becoming one of the best alternarive energy source nowadays but still a little expensive. As ordinary electrice home user and solar power beginner, I am conscious of cost effectiveness. I understand silicon is standard material of solar cell which is just can not be manufactured at home so you must buy it, but can i make my own solar panel made of any insulated materials such as plywood or painted plain G.I. sheets with welded metal frame? Can I used 12v car battery and AVR as charge controller and a low cost bridge rectifier as inverter?
Absolutley, just make sure you include diodes so your batteries don't drain through the panels at night, and make sure everything is watersealed for obvious reasons
Owning a Solar Energy Home
More people are becoming environmentally conscious every day. Going green is more than trendy, it is necessary. Our dependency on fossil fuels has come with a high price tag, both financially and ecologically. Ever increasing energy costs, diminishing oil reserves and global warming are serious indicators of our need to change, and our need to find better power answers.
Who doesn't want to lower the costs of maintaining their home? Living in a solar power home would do just that, and help the environment at the same time. The technology has improved and costs of solar materials become more affordable. Installing solar panels is not as difficult as you may think, and most people actually prefer the "do-it-yourself" approach.
Having a contractor convert your house into a solar power home is one choice. But the costs would be very high and could take up to thirty years to get a return on your investment. If you are so inclined, you can do it yourself.
There are various resources and publications out there that can teach you how to develop your solar energy home. The best laid out guide for the first time do-it-yourselfer is offered by company called Earth4Energy. The Earth4Energy guide will show you how to build your own solar panels, and do it for under $200.00. This guide is more than affordable, informative and intended for the non professional, so anybody can do this regardless of their skill level. You do not have to be a builder or have any experience at all. Everything is laid out in easy step-by-step instructions and also includes videos.
Building alternative power sources for your own solar energy home can not only be enjoyable, but also quite educational. The knowledge gained in the process will improve your ability to manage a cost effective, pollution free, low maintenance solar energy home for years to come.
