Learn to evaluate your actual energy needs
Product Description If you want to put together a solar power system yourself this DVD is for you. Although it covers an off-grid system it is just as helpful for someone who wants to be partially on grid but would rather set up the system themselves. This is not an overview but rather programmed instruction. This DVD shows, step-by-step, how a 650-watt, off-grid, do-it-yourself solar-panel system was set up. The system partially replaced a 2-gallon-a-day gasoline-driven generator syst… More >>
Can I place a wind generator on my property that only converts dc into ac and runs it back into the grid?What i mean is can i do it without using a bit of the electricity myself.No Batteries,no connection to my power other than sending it back into the grid.

We use about 400 to 500 kwh per month. We have a tv, computer,microwave, and of course fride, washer/dryer, and back up water heater. (solar water heater is the main one)
Also how much would such a system cost, including batteries and inverters? Rough estimate okay.
I try to use very little energy, and those are the figures on our current electic bills

I also want to stay off the electric grid . It would cost an additional ten thousand dollars to be hooked into it and I want to be independant from utilities. Would solar panels and batteries power lights and T.V , computer , washer dryer ect.
My name is Greg Davis, and I'm a long time DIY'er and proponent of clean, green energy. I'm not trained as an electrician or anything like that, but I've always liked to work in my home shop and am pretty good with building things with my hands. I figured it would be an interesting and challenging project to see if I could put together some basic solar and wind power generators on a budget, using supplies I could get locally. And so this blog was born!
