I found this website called Pennsylvania Solar Course while doing research for my business. It is by the Pennsylvania Million Solar Roofs Initiative and has a great deal of information for DIYers looking to install solar hot water and electric systems.
It is something that I wish I could write myself, but I don’t have enough time to do all the things that I need to, much less produce a well written a solar power primer.
In any case, if you are thinking about solar electric or solar hot water, this has some very good explanations on how it works and what is required. One thing to note, the last chapter called “Ecconomics” differs from state to state because each state has different incentive programs. If you live in a state other than Pennsylvania, check the DSIRE website (Database of State Incentives for Renewable Energy) for a complete run down of incentives for your state.

Paul,
Great site! I just bookmarked it so I can go back and read up more on solar. How’s the solar business going anyway? Seems to me with all the fuel nonsense going on you must be getting lots of calls from prospective customers.
Thanks Todd. I thought some curious people may be interested. As far as the Solar Business goes, it is coming along. Lots and lots of interest, I have made a few sales and have a few installations pending. It is one of the reasons why I have not be posting as much as I used to.
