As individuals, for years we have been told that solar Electric systems are just not affordable, to take a home off the grid it would cost $40,000.00 or more. Our e-book will show you how to build a grid tie system that produces enough power for your home and even excess to sell back to the utility company not for $40,000.00 or $20,000.00 or $10,000.00 or even $5,000.00 but for three easy payments of $69.95.
O.K. we are just joking about the $69.95 but we will show you how to build a 100-Watt solar panel for about $85.00 and provide you with the steps needed, to install a Solar Electric Grid Tie System yourself, in most cases costing you a little under a $1.00 a watt (before tax credits and State incentves). Our system is highly scalable so you can start with a 300 watt system add panels over time and end up with a 10KW system only changing some fuses, grounding wires and an inverter along the way.

Why our book?
A couple years ago I decided to I wanted to Go Green and take my home off the grid. As I was researching solar PV system , I found internet sites about how to build your own solar panels. So I purchase this e-Book. Although this e-Book came with lots of bonus material, everything form doing your own energy audit to building a electric producing windmill. They never got down to the Nuts and Bolts of building code requirements and how to get your system permitted. So I tried another e-Book with the same result.
Realizing there may be a need for such a resource and having years of experience with permitting I took what I learned about building and installing my own grid tie system and created this e-Book.
