Three Types of  Solar Energy Kits

Grid Tied Solar Kits  is a solar energy system is designed to help you reduce or eliminate your power costs and if your system is large enough, you’ll be able to store excess energy and sell it back to your power company.  The power generated from these kits range from the lower end of 2.3 kilowatts up to 12.65 kilowatts. Prices range from $2,000 to $50,000 for these kits.

 Off Grid Solar Kits – if you desire to be completely free from the power company or live in a remote area, an off-grid system is the answer. Off grid solar kits are designed to power everything you need, including appliances, lights, heat, and air. A back up battery backup system should also be in place for the cloudy days.

You can generate around 300 watts of power with an off-grid kit or even as much as 1800 watts of power with a larger kit. You’ll need to purchase a grounding rod, conduit, and wire separately.Prices for off grid solar kits have a wide range, beginning somewhere around $800 for a small system to $35,000 and up for larger systems. The larger the system and the more power you want to generate, the more it will cost.

 Solar RV & Marine Kits  are ideal for powering your recreational vehicle or boa because these systems are easily installed and very affordable. The kits contain solar panels, an amp charge controller, and battery, mounting hardware and output cables. They can produce as little as 10 watts of power or up to 340 watts of power. Prices range from $250 to $1,800.
