Green Energy News

Many people have decided to take responsibility for their part in helping the environment, and h ave found that making their own green energy not only helps save the planet, but also dramatically lowers their electric bill.

when you browse the web, you will find three extremely common home made energy devices that can help help lower your electric bill. If you have some DIY knowledge, you can build your own solar panels, windmills or magnetic energy systems. These DIY projects can typically be completed in a few short days and will cost you very little. All that’s required are a few basic DIY tools, the components and a highly recommended DIY green energy guide like Earth4Energy (don’t worry, it’s cheap).

How much will it cost? How much energy output will you gain?

Making your own solar power generator costs approximately $200 for an 80 watt solar panel that can generate electricity or heat water for your home. Although not enough to adequately power a small home, with multiple panels you will likely generate enough power to dramatically cut your electric bills.

Building your own wind turbine costs around $100 and will yield a massive supply of power if you reside in aplace with constant wind. These devices are generally used to generate power on a smaller scale, but remain very popular due to their cheap materials and ease of build.

Building your own magnetic power generation device will likely cost around $120 and is comparatively simple to construct. Magnetic generators can realistically produce up to 40% of your home energy demands, with the average home receiving around 25%. By building multiple generators, you will be able to increase the amount of electricity that you make and could end up generating enough to satisfy your entire electrical needs.

There has been a surge in interest in ways to lower electricity bills. Making use of renewable energy sources is a great way to save money while reducing your carbon footprint.
