In the past four or five years there is only one group of people that I am aware of who have had a reduction in their electric bills. Who is this group of lucky folks you are probably asking? These are the people who have done their research and have converted there power systems to an alternative energy sources. Most of these people have chosen home solar power systems.

Home solar power systems have been proven to reduce electricity bills. How much will it reduce your power bill? Each individual case is unique. This is where each person who is considering solar power needs to do some research. Many implement their residential solar energy in increments. Perhaps you decide to connect only a few of your needs to the solar power system. Say, that saved 20% from your conventional power bill which was $400 per month. That's like finding an $80 bill (or maybe four $20 bills would be better) lying around that you could use on something else that you need, or better than that, want.

Many people who use home solar power systems have substantial monthly savings over conventional power sources.

Planning and research are the keys to successful solar energy implementation. Each case is different but a few of the things that you need to know are:

1. How much power will be needed to provide for your required needs?

2. How much space will be needed for your solar panel array?

3. Where will your solar panels be installed?

This short list of questions is by no means all inclusive of the questions that you will need answers to.

If you should decide to put in a residential solar energy system, each step that you implement goes a long way in reducing your energy bills.

Not only is residential solar energy less expensive to use than conventional fuels, it is much cleaner. The production of solar energy doesn't release any pollutants into the atmosphere. Since sunlight is the only raw material used to produce solar power there no mining or drilling required.

Solar power technology has advanced rapidly in recent years. There are predictions that in the next ten years or so, that the cost to implement residential solar will undercut the implementation cost of fossil fuels and nuclear power.

In the past few years do-it-yourself (DIY) implementation of residential solar energy systems has become very popular. There are several good solar power kits on the market today. The solar power kits come with step-by-step instruction manuals which are written for the novice do-it-yourselfer. These products also have videos and a list of all needed materials which cane purchased at your local hardware store for less than $200.
