I really should keep my mouth shut on this but since I'm very interested in renewable energy I won't. To do it right cost a great amount of $$. However nobody says you have to jump in with both feet at once. I spent over the course of a couple years about $300 and have at least lights in garage in case of power outage. No it's not a great amount of power but at least I can see. I have a lot of learning to do yet. I did make some emergency lighting in the house using LEDs and some cereal bowls. One far, far "outa the box" thinking I have is if you take a large tank (old milk tanker??) insulated greatly, bury it (build a 'house' around it?) with piping running to/from tank to solar collectors, use a small solar powered pump to move the solution during the summer months while the sun is best. Then come cooler/colder weather another set of pipes running from tank to house hooked to some sort radiator in-line with furnace blower or hook this to solar/turbine to run fan and at least during good daylight and/or windy conditions there would be something warm coming into house. R.O.I. for this idea I cant fathom!!! But it can be done. Check out builditsolar dot com. He is located in Maryland however one link he has shows someone in Finger Lakes region of NY made solar collectors and is pumping very warm air into his place when ever the sun shows.
