4 Solar Incentives and Ways to Make Money From Solar Energy
Sunday, April 12, 2009
Solar energy has gone mainstream to the point where anyone can build their own fully functional electricity producing solar cells at home and on a budget. Consider these 4 money making and saving solar incentives for making the easy, affordable, one time switch to renewable solar energy.
Power Bills - On average, most households in the US spend $2500 annually on electricity to power their homes alone. Given the great efficiency of implementing homemade solar cells and solar incentives, you can drastically reduce that monthly bill or eliminate it altogether. Imagine having an extra $2500 in your annual budget each year just because you didn't have to pay inflating utility costs. If you're sick of it, many other Americans are as well, only they've gone ahead, taken the initiative to create their own energy at home, and have since moved off the grid.
Extra Energy - Whatever electricity which you produce from your solar cells but don't consume in a given month is a surplus which can be fed back into the power grid and sold back to the power company for a tidy profit. The government reimburses the power company to do this. Many homeowners with extra land devote it to creating natural energy and cover it with solar cells to bring in a healthy profit or even second income. Imagine not paying but receiving an extra $2500 or more each year for no extra effort required on your part.
Tax Breaks - The government is interested in doing whatever it can to alleviate the on going energy crisis for our country and our planet. Consequently they reward those who live off the grid and are self reliant with considerable tax breaks. The Obama administration is particularly interested in renewable, clean energy devices such as solar cells, so you can expect a even more solar incentives for creating your own energy in the near future.
Selling Solar Cells - Many other homeowners are very interested in these same money making solar incentives and many are willing to pay top dollar for it. Some people who have made their own solar cells using DIY guides have gone on to construct multiple solar cells and sold them to other people for a tidy profit.
Interested in creating your own solar energy at home but aren't sure where to start? Take a look at how easy and affordable it is using the best reviewed DIY energy guides completely risk free.
These are highly reviewed guides which teach you exactly how to quickly and affordably build your own solar cells and achieve all of these solar incentives using easy to follow, step by step illustrated instructions.
Please note that the solar incentives mentioned above are only available in the United States. I'm not sure on other countries. I've read somewhere that German provide subsidies for solar panels at home but I can't confirm this yet. I still hope that Malaysia government (the country dwell) will provide incentive for solar technology application at home. It will definitely save us money on our utility as well minimize green house effect.

Since I'm interested to learn about energy, I've been reading some magazine as well as websites associated with utility & energy. Among the magazine that greatly discusses about utility and energy is "Power Engineering'.
- Free digital subscription.
- POWER magazine covers business and technology for the global generation industry.
- This publication includes features on topics ranging from boilers and combustion systems, environmental management; instrumentation, controls, computers, and software; information technologies; natural gas, oil, coal, and renewable fuels; nuclear power; pumps, compressors, valves, and piping; turbines, engines, and generators; water treatment.
- Discover the business of the energy industry through monthly departments, including Global Monitor and Legal & Regulatory, and features that address the changing regulatory environment for power generation.
Established in 1896, Power Engineering magazine can be considered the comprehensive voice of the power generation industry that provides readers with the critical information needed to remain efficient and competitive in today's market. News and information served are fresh and well reported. I highly recommend this magazine and if you are interested, it's FREE (I only recommend good quality product which is FREE...)
