DIY Renewable Energy for Free Electricity
November 18th, 2009 | 
Author: It nearly sounds too good to be right – diy renewable energy for your home, your business, or your RV, free of charge to get AND good for the planet AND you’ll be able to easily install it DIY!
The nice news is that it is not only doable but 100% TRUE!
Renewable energy comes directly from nature – wind, sun, wave and water.
Most of us don’t live beside the sea or by a stream or river and this rules out wave and water power for all but a few, however we can still have DIY renewable energy from the sun or from the wind all in our own backyard and other than the initial outlay it is all for free of charge.
Whether or not you decide for wind power or solar power, or a mixture of the two can rely on where you live. If you live in an space that has a regular wind blowing, a good quality wind turbine system capable of delivering five hundred+ Watts of power is a huge energy saver.
Wind power is probably the oldest technique of getting free energy – we have all seen Western movies with an old windmill pumping water from the well. Happily things have moved on a long way since those days and these days wind turbines, a turbine being a hugely efficient windmill, and provided the wind speed is around 10mph, or above, you should pretty much get adequate power to satisfy most, if not all, of your electricity requirements.
Clearly different turbines have totally different power outputs and do rely on the wind speed but you should still on average save up to around 80% on the electricity costs that you at present pay to the utility company.
Industrially manufactured and custom put in wind turbine units can cost thousands of dollars but doing it yourself can cost well under $200.
How much do you pay each year to the power company?
Stop throwing away so much money – a nominal investment of less $two hundred and you begin getting power for free day after windy day using DIY renewable energy AND it helps save the earth!
It should be noted though that it will call for a little bit of space and if you only have a little yard or flat area of roof you may have to put in a smaller unit which can provide less energy, it will still do the business if combined with a DIY solar energy system.
The opposite money saving way to reduce your energy prices is DIY solar power.
There are 2 systems for getting free energy from the sun – established heating (direct heating from the warmth of the sun) or electricity production (uses solar cells).
Both systems are well within the budget of everybody and are simple enough to place together to be well within the capabilities of DIY’ers everywhere.
For around $200 it’s possible to own an electrical generation DIY solar system that can offer enough power for your fridge, washing machine, pc, TVs, lights etc. The good thing regarding this can be its size that suggests that it can also utilized in RV’s. The more panels you’ll use together the more power you’ll obtain.
The other DIY renewable energy system is capturing heat by using water or liquid filled panels. These are very efficient in providing heat for central heating or hot water. Dollar for dollar these systems provide the quickest payback against outlay as the energy heat saving gains are large.
Stop wasting money today and in its place start helping to save the surroundings and get plugged into DIY renewable energy.
Most folks do not realise that it’s doable to use DIY Renewable Energy such as solar energy and wind power to generate enough electricity so that you could save as much as 80% of your typical electricity prices, in fact in some cases it is even doable to generate so much electricity that your are able to sell it back to the power company. Find out how DIY Renewable Energy can save you money.
