Description

This down-to-earth book shows how to make solar work reliably, consistently and economically. It explains what can realistically be run from solar: and what cannot. It covers the energy typically used (and saveable) for every aspect of a home or property (of any size). It shows how to assess the available sun year around (anywhere) and how to assess the size system you need. It covers design and installation in depth.

Review Quotes:
Collyn Rivers has enormous knowledge of the subjects in his books and his writing is concise and not overdone with technicalities or difficult-to-understand jargon … they are written in clear English and it is difficult to find any aspect not fully explained.

Peter Poat The West Australian

Whether you want to simply understand the pros and cons of going solar . . . this book will answer more questions than any other. Highly recommended.

Alan Gray Editor, Earth Garden magazine

A pragmatic no-nonsense approach to solar energy written by acclaimed Australian author Collyn Rivers, who walks the walk by showing his self-installed solar system on his 100% solar powered 10-acre property in the Kimberley.
