Make Your Own Electricity

Fuel prices are down now, but nobody knows how long it will last. Even the US Department of Transportation warned consumers to get used to high fuel prices. We are in a very unpredictable situation, and it sort of irritates me that problems with fuel price and depending upon unstable countries get a lot of press when fuel is expensive, and then fall away when fuel is cheaper.

But we still see a lot of interest in this: Do It YourSelf Solar Power and Do It Yourself Wind Power. You see, do it yourself solutions solve more problems than just a high price.

They also allow you to produce your own power. I know that anybody who sat in their dark house during the recent storms could appreciate that! Oh sure, people had gasoline generaters, but they were noisy and expensive to run too!

And not everybody knows this, but if you produce more power than you use, you can actually sell power back to the grid! Even if fuel prices are going down, money is still tight these days. Wouldn't it be great to produce enough energy to sell back to the electric company?
