    Question by Rebecca: How to build a solar house for my science project?


    We can use a cardboard box, plastic wrap, aluminum foil, etc. Ways to collect as many solar rays as possible. Nothing too fancy or expensive, either! Goal: highest single temperature and highest average temperature. It’s going to be like a competition between the whole class. Please help!

    Best answer:

    Answer by Plainer
    Find materials that *collect* light instead of reflect it. That means use black colored items. The aluminum foil could come in handy to somehow try to reflect the rays onto the house…

I know your heart is saying “yes “because you want to save your money by lowering expensive charges for electricity. On the other hand, your mind will say “no “because you may think that you will have to pay high charges to build them. Another thing will come in your mind is that you will have to pay someone and he may build panels with low quality things. As a result, that solar panel will stop working soon and you will have to get a new one. There is good news for you people. These doubts have become just useless misconceptions about how to build solar panels. Government increased electricity charges, public found alter sources of generating power. You can supply power to your homes by solar panels. Therefore, learning how to build them will result in no electricity bill, and a greener earth. A solar panel should be placed on such a place where it may get solar energy in high quantity regularly. The roof of a house if obviously the most commonly used place. Your solar panel will automatically convert the solar energy into electrical energy when you build solar panels once. Solar panels are becoming ever so important on our ever changing planet.

    Question by noofyourbusiness: How can i build a large solar panel for my home in country like Pakistan?


    I am very interested in making solar panels in Karachi, Pakistan. But cant figure out where i get solar cells? If there is some DIY methods please tell me.

    Best answer:

    Answer by Bedouin
    I’m not sure a country like Pakistan would have the components to make your own solar panels; you may have to look on the net for it with a local search. Otherwise you may be better off to look at a completed panel which will save you money in the long term. Don’t forget you will need a voltage controller so you don’t overload the battery.

    Question by Erin: How do I build a solar generator for my cabin?


    We don’t use much electricity, so we don’t need anything too heavy-duty. I would like to run our cabin on solar electricity, but am having trouble getting help as far as what size battery, inverter, solar panel I will need. I know I also need a regulator, but don’t know anything about them either. From start to finish, what do I need and where can I get all he parts I need at a reasonable price? Is it cost-effective to buy an already put together solar generator?

    Best answer:

    Answer by honeylulu2
    Try http://www.solarelectricsupply.com/

    The stuff they sell seems to more or less live up to the specifications.

    If you decide to buy discounted panels be a little careful. It was my experience that the specifications overstated the performance by 50% to 100%

    BTW – the best investment you can make is a good recent book on the subject. Anything copyright before 2007 is probably obsolete.

    Good luck
