While the hardware has been available for approximately 40 years, only recently have key components of photovoltaic solar power systems achieved a level of development resulting in inverters that safely connect to the utility grid and solar modules that reliably and cost effectively produce power at a price comparable to that of your electric distribution [...]
Two dominant types of modules used in approximately 85% of installations are crystalline silicon based. The photovoltaic solar cells used in the construction of these modules are comprised of monocrystalline cells, using a more efficient more expensive manufacturing process or polycrystalline cells also known as multicrystalline, a less efficient less expensive process. Companies have substantially [...]
We have a nice-sized garden in our backyard and we try to keep it totally organic by not using any chemical pesticides and fertilizers. One way to fertilize our plants while keeping them organic is by using a worm composter to create rich, dark, organic compost. A worm composter works by using worms to break [...]
