How To Build Your Own Solar Panels

Making your own solar panels is relatively easy.  It's a project that will take just a few hours to complete and will result in a lower electricity bill for years.  It pays for itself relatively quickly.  The Earth4Energy Kit provides a number of specific purpose solar blueprints.

• Portable Solar Power System
• Grid tied in Solar Power System
• Grid Tied In Solar Power System with Battery Backup
• Off Grid Solar Power System

Whether you want a system to take with you on road trips, or want to power 100% of your home's electricity needs you will find a blueprint in the kit that shows you what you need and how to put it together.

Don't spend $10,000 to $20,000 for a commercial Solar Panel installation. You want to save money by generating your own electricity not spend huge amounts to do something you can do yourself.

You can build your own Solar Panel arrays for as little as $200 and start powering your home using renewable sources.

The Earth4Energy Kit gives you the blueprints, shopping lists and design specs you need to unplug from the grid.

By putting together smaller and cheaper PV cells like these:

You can build large arrays to power your home like this:

Parts List

Here's what you'll need and the estimated costs to get your own solar panel installation generating power for your home:
