Can you run an entire home strictly on solar power?

By admin | November 24, 2008

brentdaman2004 asked:


I am building a log home several miles from the nearest power hookup. It will take nearly $30,000 to run power to my homesite. Solar appears to be a viable option, if it is possible to run the whole house. I can get propane delivered if necessary, but if I can do it all with solar, I’d be more likely to go that route.

      The expense is so great that you will never recoup it.

      The money you save on bills and of course is great for itself with the initial cost will pay for the environment if only more people were keen.
