I must admit to not liking energy companies so the chance to make homemade electricity really caught my attention.
Energy prices keep going up and up and I no longer want to depend on companies that seem to change their prices more often than Paris Hilton changes her bikini.
Overcoming the 4 Main Obstacles to Homemade Electricity The 4 key issues have been; consistency of supply, cost, storage and availability of knowledge.
We now live in a time where these 4 barriers can be easily surmounted.
Consistency of supply can be addressed by using multiple energy sources.
This generally means micro-wind and solar panel based solutions.
Other options exist but these are the two most popular.
The cost is still a barrier, however it is easier to generate your own power than most people realize.
Government and Oil companies have lead us to believe this is difficult or impossible.
However the truth is that it is not difficult and all of the required materials are easily available, including the information on how to do it.
The knowledge is not longer a problem, excellent information is now available on the Internet that explains clearly how to build a solar and wind based power generation system for under $100.
Prebuilt solutions cost thousands of dollars so to build a solar and wind generator for under $100 is a very exciting prospect indeed.
Lastly how do we store the power we have generated.
You have your $200 setup, its working great but new batteries are expensive.
Well there are ways of getting 'pre-loved' batteries, practically for free and still with plenty of life in them.
Additionally every year battery prices fall significantly and capacity increases.
So a solution is to store your homemade electricity using 'pre-loved' batteries then increase your storage capacity as new battery prices drop.
