The small solar-power generator for homes is waiting to be built as of today, 2008. Parts and components for a solar power generator have been invented, developed, and are in operation for many years, but the full electrical equipment that powers up a home, has not been integrated and is not ready for the market place.

The home power generator (HPG) based on sun heat requires a small solar dish to collect the heat, a small Stirling engine capable of moving a 3 KWh electrical generator, the power generator and a battery system to store one or two days generated electricity. The battery bank would then supply 24/7 electricity to any outlet upon demand. An additional gas heater installation can be included to backup the lack of sun light, making the system a reliable alternative. Components for this home power generator have yet to be integrated into an appliance homeowners can buy at Sears, Home Depot or other stores, and have it installed. Larger Power Generators using Stirling Engine are a reality and have been developed by Infinia Corporation for the California Solar Plant.

CENTRALIZED POWER GENERATION
Large power generation and distribution companies, are staying away from the home markets. There are 44 companies in the United States that generate and distribute electricity, with 403 billion in revenues, making profits of 36 billion p/year, who wish to continue charging each consumer forever. Developing technology for homes can hurt their central power generation business. Although their plans may include the diversification of their power source, such as: nuclear, hydro, solar, thermal power, as well as, continuing the use of coal, natural gas, oil, it does not include the home power generation market.

Sunlight is the only energy available to all homes, free of charge, provided by God and nature. If sunlight was harness by each consumer to power up their home, central power generators and distributors may not be needed. Other power generating technologies coming from thermal power, hydro or nuclear power, are innocuous to these utility companies, because home owners will never use these energy sources to generate their own power. Thus we can expect that current power utility companies will continue to use these traditional sources of energy extensively, and will defer and try to derail home solar technology as much as they can, as long as they can.

When no other alternative existed for obtaining electricity as we have had in the past, electricity supplied from these large plants was welcomed. But today, with so many more technologies available, large power generation plants and centralized business model is highly inefficient because: 1. consumers pay more and forever, to these virtual monopolies; 2. homes need to be within the reach of the electrical grids, remote country homes not tied to the grid need to find other ways to power up their home; 3. flying electrical cables through the streets provide for visual contamination and make streets and neighborhoods look bad; 4. the land used for laying down the high tension cables is about 3%; 99% of the power generated comes from contaminating fuels, either fossil fuels or radioactive materials; and lastly the expensive investment plant model inhibits poor countries from obtaining electricity. In essence the centralized power plants have American paying electricity forever, and are the direct cause for poverty and starvation in the world. Please read on Poverty generation: http://www.articlesbase.com/politics-articles/poverty-and-the-new-world-order-809385.html

We need to understand that insisting in generating electricity via very large plants, without the development of the Home Power Generator, creates world poverty, inhibits poor countries from obtaining electricity, inhibits people in those countries to produce food and make products to generate an income which can sustain themselves, and comes back to the USA in terms of the help we need to provide but always as charity.

BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY
Since FPL, Duque Energy, Constellation Energy and the other 39 companies are incapable of developing the HPG, other investors are need to develop this light weight Solar power generation industry. , similar to the Air conditioning manufacturing plants. Development and fabrication of the HPG would be the integration of the 4 components, which can be produced or outsourced by the investor, making the investment accessible to smaller investors. The HPG appliance will be maintenance free, operating cost free, can be sold all over the world, to power up homes and eliminating the electricity cost of those using it.

   What solar equipment is necessary to power a steam generator for a home steam bath?
   The generator I have is rated at 12 KW, requires 220V and 33Amp service to heat a room of 500 cubic feet. The power is only needed periodically and for short periods of time, 30 – 60 minutes a day. (on a rare occasion, twice a day.) How do I plan, organize and calculate the required equipment?

   You want to power it with Photovoltaic panels?
   Or are you asking about passive solar pre-heaters?

   If you are going to buy Photovoltaic panels, just call up a install firm and get some. There is a 30% tax credit for them now even. But why you are specifically tying the PV panels into your sauna is just confusing. It would sure make for an expensive sauna.

   Question About Solar Energy For My Home?
   Hello I am looking into purchasing a solar power generator for my home. I want to prepare for a time if electricity were to ever be cut off from my house.

   I’m not trying to power my whole house, just two freezers located in my garage to keep the food frozen at night. I would also like to be able to charge a laptop, use a radio, and charge flashlights. Not all at the same time of course.

   So my question is what solar power system would suit my needs. I am also under a budget. Thank you guys

   Looking for a portable solar powered generator for home, thoughts on good options?
   To serve as a back-up in case of power outages (due to storms knocking down power lines) and brown/black outs (due to expected demand/supply gaps). I like the idea of making use of the primary cause of upticks in the global climate…you know, the huge nuclear ball in the sky…aka the freakin’ SUN.

   Criteria:
   - budget is $500 – $750
   - portable
   - capable of powering ceiling halogen and regular lights, multiple computers/monitors and my crazy home theatre
   - for as much as 2-3 days

   Thank me very much.

   Now you know why the public utilities burn fossil fuel.

   you can purchase solar systems all over the place, they are made by dozens of different companies. however, if you are planning on convering your entire home over to solar you should definitley read more about them as it would require a very large number of cells for the average house. in addition, the setup can be quite complex

   the freezers will use 99.5% of what you are asking ( charge a laptop = .5% )

   You need to go look at the data plate of the freezer. It will say something like Volts ( 120 ) Amps ( 14 ) Watts ( 1680 ) Watts = Volts x Amps ) .

   You need to figure how many hours a day the freezer runs.

   You only get about 3-5 usable hours a day of sunlight at best no matter where you are.

   Say you need 3 hours run time on the freezer. 3 x 1680 = 5,000 watts a day. 2 freezers, 10,000 W

   a 150 Watt panel gives 450 watts a day.

   Each panel costs 400-600 dollars.

   You need 10 of them

   You need batteries to store the charge and then an inverter to take 12v to 120 volts to run things..

   The short answer to all those complex calculations is:

   around $8,000 to run the freezers.

   a book which would give basic information about manufacturing of small solar power generators for my home.?
   wanted also book of wind generators for the same purpose.
   please give the link if possible.
