Step-by-Step Guide to Building a Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle
A plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) is the logical next step for the millions of people who own hybrid cars or who want an extremely efficient car. PHEVs solve a lot of problems quickly. They combine the benefits of pure electric vehicles and hybrid electric vehicles. Much like pure electric vehicles, they plug into the electric grid and can be powered by the stored electricity alone. Similar to hybrid electric vehicles, they have engines that enable them to have a greater driving range and that can recharge the battery.

The DIY Guide to OFF GRID Solar Electricity
In this article I'll show you how to untether from the grid, and avoid a smelly, noisy, fuel consuming generator except in extreme weather conditions. It can be pricey for a good system, but you'll have minimal ongoing expenses, unlike fuel and maintenance on a generator. The less power you consume, the less power you will need to generate, keeping the system costs down. It's important to start with conservation.
Solar System Racking Systems
From a materials perspective, racking represents roughly 5-10% of the system cost. That said, the labor required to install the modules on the racking system costs twice as much as the racking material involved and can account for up to 66% of the total installed cost of a system. According to expert industry analysts, the speed and ease of installation for the racking system can directly impact roughly 40% of the total installed cost.
