Sure! We we use a clothesline, and le the sun dry laundry. You can also have a solar heating system, a photovoltaic electrical system, and solar powered lights for a garden or patio area.

Solar energy systems have taken off due to the advent of something called "thin film". This technology has allowed home solar systems to be more efficient, last longer, and look better. This film also is better integrated into existing roofing so you don;t have to have large panels sticking up. The big decision will be whether to buy or lease a solar system - both options have positives and drawbacks. But basically the answer to your question is very much "yes".

What is solar power Where can I buy solar power?

Solar power is created by the sun. This form of power is a good choice because it renews itself daily, and does not use fossil fuels that are capable of being depleted. Solar power itself cannot be purchased, but you can find devices to capture this power from home improvement stores such as Home Depot.


Lower Your Electric Bill With A Home Solar Power Generator?

A home solar power generator can help you lower or eliminate your electric bill. Most home solar generators use solar panels on the roof to collect solar energy. These panels will cover most of your roof, but will not detract from the look of your home. Energy is collected during the day and stored in batteries. During the night or on a cloudy day, you will use the energy stored in the batteries.


How many people use solar power compared to fossil fuels?

A very small number of people just use solar power. They have solar panels that transform sunlight into electricity and store this in batteries for home use. Most other people who use solar power also use power from fossil fuels. They have solar panels but are also connected to the electricity grid, so they also use mainsteam electricity, which is mostly generated by burning fossil fuel.


How many panels are needed to generate solar power for home use?

There is no general easy answer to how many panels are needed for your exact home. This depends on how much power you use, how much rainfall you receive in your location, and other factors. A solar panel can create 70 milliwatts of power per square inch, so completely changing an average home's power usage to solar would require a solar panel that measures about 285 square feet, or about 26 square meters. This would cost around $16000. Without decreasing your lifestyle's dependency on electricity, powering your home exclusively through solar power is difficult.

Is a home solar generator a good investment?

A solar home generator would be a good investment if you also invested in a battery system that would allow you to store the power generated for later use. Otherwise you could only use the power while it was being generated, and that's not the most efficient.
