For designers, makers, and builders
If you’re interested in exploring the potential of solar energy, then a do-it-yourself (DIY) solar project is a great place to start. Before you get started, it’s important to assess your needs. This can help ensure that your DIY solar project is successful and will be able to meet your energy requirements.
Cutting to the chase: Yes, you can build your own solar system, or at least partially, depending on each individual’s DIY skills. The DIY process includes sizing your solar panel system, selecting components that meet your needs, assembling and installing solar panels, solar inverters, and safety circuit breakers. Even if you don’t have all your solar panels installed, the more you install, the cheaper it will be to hire a certified technician.
