About This Guide
This guide provides you with an ample solar knowledge base and lets you apply that info through do-it-yourself projects — or through hiring others to do the work for you. I use plain English to the extent possible, breaking complex technical concepts down into bite-sized pieces. But my goal is always to help you navigate the maze of solar technology as efficiently and sensibly as possible.

Every house is different. Climates are different, even in areas separated by a couple of miles. Markets are evolving, suppliers are changing, and technology is constantly evolving. Sometimes you’re going to have to make your own decisions, and I can give you only the pertinent information you need to make the best one. Or in some cases, all I can do is point you toward the information sources you need to consult. But you can find the essentials here, tailor them to your own situation, and get a solar system that really works for you.
