★Gain energy independence, access to electricity or reduce diesel generator costs for your home or RV!★
Off-grid solar systems, or stand-alone power systems, produce enough energy through the usage of solar panels and battery storage without having to tap into the electric grid.
If you live in an RV or van, solar panels can recharge your house batteries, allowing you to run AC appliances while on the road without needing to hook up to external power sources.
There are a lot of guides out there about solar panel systems. Unfortunately, very often, these guides are incredibly technical and complicated to understand if you do not have an electronic engineering degree.
This book provide a step-by-step overview of what it takes to design and install your own off-grid solar system, and explain how you can save thousands by doing it yourself.
Don’t worry if You know nothing about electricity, batteries, series, and parallel circuits! In this book, you will not find difficult concepts, but a lot of practical information that will allow you to start realizing your project immediately.
If you want to understand how solar power works and you are planning to install your own stand-alone solar system, this book has everything you need to know. You will find how to get all the components of your solar system separately and assemble them all by yourself. You will learn the basic formulas you can’t live without when building a solar panel system.
You will discover all you need to know about batteries, solar panels, inverters, charge controllers, generators, cables, devices, and many other things. Finally, You will find some solar system wiring diagrams you can use as a guide to putting together your solar panel system.
The book is divided into four sections. The first one contains all the basic concepts needed to understand solar energy and electricity. The second part contains everything you need to know about choosing the components of your solar system. The third section explains how to connect the batteries and panels together. In this part, I will also provide you with some typical solar system configurations, along with some original cost estimates.
You will have the opportunity of choosing the configuration you prefer based on your energy needs. In the final part, You’ll find a step by step guide on how to build your off-grid solar system.
At the end of this book, you can consider installing solar panels as a relatively straightforward process, with the possibility of having a little fun. What is more: once you’ve done it successfully, it’s almost like learning to ride a bike – you’ll never have to forget or learn the process again!
