Whatever your needs, there are 4 different blueprints to follow:

  • Off grid solar power
You will get step-by-step diagrams on how to create each of the systems with very little effort. All the components can be purchased from your local hardware store.

HomeMadeEnergy includes a 59-page manual and seven instructional videos. The videos are ideal if you are a visual learner. Also included is a panel array sizing spreadsheet for design and sizing of multiple solar panels.

Developed by Bill Ford, a Journeyman Electrician, HomeMadeEnergy covers a lot of solar energy basics. Although the manual does not contain the level of detail found in Earth4Energy, the videos more than make up for the step-by-step instruction required to build your solar panels and wind turbines.

The information contained in HomeMadeEnergy is solid, and can be a great way for the inexperienced person to get started making their own renewable energy system. There are periodic updates of videos as well as other information, showing Bill Ford's dedication to producing a product with ongoing value.

HomeMadeEnergy provides you with the information required to successfully build wind and solar power systems. It is particularly useful for visual learners. However, if you would like a product with more content, Earth4Energy may be a better choice. Notwithstanding, if you choose HomeMadeEnergy, you will not be disappointed as it is information-rich and backed by a 60-day money back guarantee. After all, the sooner you can reduce your electricity bills, the better.
