Book Reviews of Got Sun? Go Solar: Get Free Renewable Energy to Power Your Grid-Tied Home

Book Review: Great exploratory book.
Summary: 5 Stars

I was thinking about making the move to solar so I decided to purchase this book and do some online research. This book does a great job explaining how solar works and what you can expect with respect to wattage from a solar array based on the size of the array, where you live, time of year, etc. It explains the different types of solar installations and helps you decide which one is best for you. It also shows how to pursue local, state and federal tax incentives to help offset the costs of purchase and installation.
