The effects of global warming are now felt around the world. This is why several measures are being taken to save on energy and minimize the release of elements or properties that destroy the atmosphere. So many people are now trying to learn how to build a solar panel to fully utilize the renewable energy of the sun. The use of this solar energy has also been proven to decrease electricity bill by at least 50%.

Here are the steps on how to build a solar panel:

  • The loads of your solar panel and your budged for the package should be clearly identified
  • Charge controller (protects batteries from over or under-charged and regulates power)
  • Convert 12 volt DC, which comes from the solar panel to 125 volts AC which is what your appliances need through using a solar inverter
  • Find good batteries
