Home Electric Systems for on or off grid Make your own home electricity with alternative energy Wind Generators and Solar Electric Modules (also called Photovoltaic or PV). The PV modules generate electricity when exposed to light, have extremely long life, no moving parts and almost no maintenance. Installing a home energy system is within the grasp of many people. You can start small and add on as needed. Many homes in the USA and world wide are already using wind and solar electricity. They are statements to reducing pollution, waste, dependence on fossil fuels and increasing independence and self-reliance. Make your home, cabin, farm, camper or RV better and be more self-reliant. There is always a risk of natural disasters and conflicts. Be prepared with sources of electricity, water, food, fuel, etc. A disruption in commerce, no matter the cause, will catch many people dependent on others to bail them out. Become more prepared so you will be in a position to help others and not be a burden to your community. Basic Engine Generator System Some systems start out with just battery, inverter and engine generator. The inverter quietly powers the house. An engine generator is used periodically to recharge battery or power loads to large for inverter. Solar modules or wind generator can be added to help charge battery and reduce engine generator run time. A gasoline, propane or diesel generator can also be used for backup power for on grid house. |
A home alternate energy system might include:1000 watt wind turbine generator on tilt-up
tower
Small systems can be 12 volts. Medium or large systems are 24 or 48 volt. We encourage people to be more energy efficient so their system can be smaller, cost less and reduce their cost of living from now on. |
