Green Energy DIY Guides Reviewed – MySolarReview Looks at the Top 5

If you have been searching the net for information about solar panels or wind turbines you have undoubtedly seen dozens of Green Energy Review websites.  MySolarReview looks at five of the top sites on the net today and gives their honest opinion of each.

  The Green Energy niche market is at the peak of its existence right now.  With the “Green” movement in full force there are dozens of websites selling ebooks that teach you how to build your own solar panel and/or wind turbine.  These ebooks are directed at the Do-It-Yourself homeowner who wants to start producing their own electricity in order to cut their energy costs.

In this article we are going to discuss a website which has gone to extended lengths to review five of the top DIY Green Energy websites and the guides they are offering for sale.  This site is known as MySolarReview.com.  The site has been produced by a family in Texas who decided a little while back that they wanted to build one of these solar panel systems for themselves.  When researching the market they found so many sites to look at that it was very confusing as to which might be the one to choose.  After performing all of their research they decided to create their website to help others through the decision process.

In the reviews on their website, they have rated each of the top five sites on the following traits.

  • Green Power - Obviously the main goal from any power generation project is to generate power. They tested how much power each solar panel and windmill could actually generate
  • Ease of Building - With a package that teaches how to convert a home, the material should be clearly laid out, and the components should be simple to build. 
  • Instructional Value - From the above criteria they gave higher ratings to those learning packages that taught how to go green with ease. The best packages had everything clearly explained, drawn blueprints, and then further explained with how-to videos.
  • Cost Involved - The main reason people choose to convert their home themselves is to save money. They gave much higher ratings to the packages that teach how to find parts for less.
  • Availability of Parts - Some of the learning packages tested recommended parts that weren't available. They gave higher marks to those that used parts that were available to anyone (such as at your local hardware store)
  • Time Involved - How long did it take to build each component. They found this had a lot to do with how well the material was explained, but some of the plans just weren't simple enough. 
  • Overall Rating - From the above factors they gave each package an overall rating.

The five sites reviewed, in order of their rankings, are Green Power Easy, Earth 4 Energy, Home Made Energy, Energy 4 Green and Power 4 Home.  The consensus of all the reviews is that each guide is capable of providing you with the information needed to build a solar panel or wind turbine, but only the first two do it in convincing style.  The highest ranked site, Green Power Easy, is one of the newest sites on the web.  Their developers have taken the time to roll all the good aspects of the other products into one.  They are offering several items in their package that the other sites don’t offer yet including Green Power Easy TV, a video series that takes you through the process step by step.

In short, if you are interested in converting your home over to renewable energyPsychology Articles, MySolarReview.com is the place to start.  At the bare minimum they will give you the information you need to do your own research and decide which Green Energy Guide is best for you.
