Understanding Solar Power
If you want
information on solar electric systems, written in a non-technical manner
that you can easily understand, you've come to the right place.
With all the
technical jargon kept to a minimum (and when necessary, fully explained),
you will have all the answers to the questions that have made you a little
hesitant, in the past, to get more involved in this clean, renewable form
of energy production.
The environmental
importance of alternative forms of energy production cannot be
overstated.
Solar power, wind power and micro-hydro power are non-polluting,
renewable and sustainable forms of energy production and their use
should be actively encouraged.
An important
step in this direction is to have readable, easy to understand
information available.
Now, with the
information offered here, you will be able to move forward and take
advantage of this clean, renewable source of electrical power.

Taking the Mystery Out of Solar
Power
Understanding
and Installing Your Own Solar Electric System
takes the mystery out of solar electrical
systems.
It explains solar power in language that the average person will have no trouble understanding and
putting to good use.
It takes you through the
learning process step by step, starting with an overview of solar
power and continues on with one of the most important things involved
when living with an alternative energy system, i.e., energy
conservation.
You'll learn about the various components of a solar
electric system - batteries, inverters, charge controllers,
photovoltaic panels, etc. and how they connect to and interact with
each other to form a complete solar electric system.
"This book is
well written and easy to understand for the novice, and
the everyday person.
(It).. also attends to the basics of energy conservation
and how important it is to succeed in that
discipline..."

Understanding How
Solar Power Works
Now days, most people realize that solar
energy is here to stay.
It works,
it's affordable and the positive environmental impact is substantial.
However, many people are slightly baffled by the idea of having plenty of
electrical power, without the large utility companies being involved.
How does solar power work?
How do the various components of the
system hook up and interact with each other?
Could I install it myself?
Can I still use all my appliances?
How will I know if its being installed
correctly?
What if I'm already tied into the
regular power grid?
These and just about any other questions you
may have are all answered in Understanding
and Installing Your Own Solar Electric System.
"In all, your book does a
great job of explaining what things are called, how they work, and how
to hook ‘em up…..and is nearly jargon-free, with any technical
words thoroughly explained.
I
am also glad to see the strong emphasis put on using efficient
appliances."
