Solar Electricity to Slash Your Costs
Solar electricity is a reality, believe it or not.
It's possible to slash your electricity costs by up to 80% and in some cases to negate them completely.
When you really think about it, it isn't too surprising that by using the power of the Sun for such an undertaking, solar electricity can become a reality, if we look at the incredible statistics related to the Sun.
Most of us know that it's the closest star to the Earth at some 93,000,000 miles.
It rotates once in 27 days and is now considered middle aged.
Since it's been up there performing for us for 4.
5 billion years, we may rest peacefully in the knowledge that it has about another 5 billion years of juice left in it! Not likely to burn out in our lifetimes, I think.
The surface of the Sun is named the photosphere, and the temperature of this is about 10,000 degrees fahrenheit.
But it becomes hotter still the closer to core we go.
At the very middle it rises to a terrifying 27 million degrees fahrenheit.
Now by any standard, that's hot.
So why not use some of that heat, which our minds can't really comprehend, to use here on earth? When all's said and done, heat is energy after all.
At the very basic level, on sunny days, a method of storing this heat and converting it to solar electricity is eminently possible.
A whole house may be made to run on solar electricity.
Those who can afford such a luxury are able to pay professionals large sums of money to convert their residences into such havens of grid-free luxury.
However, for those of us who's pockets aren't so deep, in my case virtually sewn up, there are other solutions to the problems of creating such energy.
A good place to start is your local hardware store.
You'd be surprised what they're selling now by way of equipment for the do-it-yourselfer in such endeavours.
Believe it or not, there are plans out there that will enable you to build solar panels, even whole solar electricity systems for a fraction of the cost you'd be faced with were you to employ professionals.
They're plans written by top experts which take you through the various steps on a very easy to follow basis.
Some come in kit form, others simply as plans.
The latter mean trips to the hardware store, but either way you can save a great deal of money.
As we've seen, the Sun's power is immense, as is its size.
It's a 109 times wider than the Earth, and burns 7,000,000 tons of natural gas a second.
It makes sense that something as massive and powerful as that should be able to produce all the solar electricity you could possibly want.
I strongly suggest looking into this.
A lot of these plans make it really very simple for even the most technically challenged among us to build something that will at least power a workshop or one or two rooms in a house, and every little helps.
The Sun shines down on all of us.
I know it doesn't seem so, particularly after all the flooding we ourselves have had in this neck of the woods, but there are plenty of sunny days where you are able to store the heat and build panels that will catch this tremendous energy.
As you go on and become more proficient, you may save a barrel of money with a house run on solar electricity.
