Gardening Tips

I’ve been wanting to add solar power to my place of residence since I did a report on residential solar power in 4th grade. That was quite awhile ago, and honestly I’m a little disappointed that we haven’t achieved residential solar power independance yet.

There is a good bit of solar power information at wikipedia.org, including advantages and disadvantages.

As I walked through Home Depot today, I checked the price for a residential solar power installation and it was around $20k for one that would provide energy for a larger home.

I will wait until that price drops by half before I really start considering it. One of the primary advantages aside from not burning oil is that in off-peak hours, you can sell the solar power back to the power company. I think that’s reason enough, depending on your rate of usage coupled with the savings in lower electric bills to pay for itself over 10 years.
