Both
of these e-books have excellent information
on how to take your
first steps toward energy independence.
While
a few solar panels and a small wind power generator
will not provide all the power for your home,
they are
a great start.
You will learn what you can do now to move
toward energy independence, what it would
take to go
completely "off
the grid" to produce all of your own
electricity, and gain valuable insight into
investing in emerging alternative
energy markets.
“The
web's best how-to guide on home power generation
using alternative energy, and the most complete and
detailed instructions for building a wind power generator.”
Earth
4 Energy covers both solar power and wind power methods
for supplementing your home’s
electricity. With the exception of a few typos, the book
is well written and illustrated. This product is comprised
of three sections:
The
Solar Power for the Home Section gives an introduction
and overview of the components needed to supplement
your home’s electricity with solar power. There
are detailed instructions and diagrams on assembling
a storage
and distribution system for the power collected by
the wind power generator and solar panels. It includes
tips on how to
find the best deals on components such as batteries
and solar panels and even get them for free!
The
Wind Power Generator for the Home Section describes
how to build your own small wind turbine for under
$200,
using easily available parts and materials, and hook
it up to the power storage system from the first
section.
The
third section talks about other types of alternative
energy for the home, ways to reduce your oil dependence,
links to more information on other types of renewable
energy, and some of the future possibilities for
alternative energy.

“A
comprehensive guide on the state of solar power
today and the best ways you can use solar power to
save
on your energy bill”
Solar
Power Secrets focuses almost exclusively on solar power
methods and what is possible versus what is practical
today
with solar energy. Solar Power Secrets has no illustrations,
photos or hyperlinks.
The book covers the complete range of
past and present solar energy applications, from heating
high-rise apartments
to solar water purification in the third world. There
are some confusing typos, and several chapters in
the latter sections are English grammar-challenged
as if
the book was written by several people but, despite
that, the book does a good job of describing the
state of solar power today and the best methods to
apply
now to save energy and money.
The book also offers insights on how
best to invest in the different facets of the solar
power industry,
a glimpse into emerging solar power markets, and
the possible future of solar energy.
The
product also includes a second E-book, Solar
Power Secrets 2, which includes more overview
information,
specific information about home uses of solar power
and living “on the grid” – supplementing
your home’s electricity with solar power.
