Solar Power-related question!!?

We Answered:

1. How do professionals do it? No clue.

2. What is involved? Depends. Do you want solar power to provide heat only, or electricity also?
Generally you have to position a bank of solar collectors that will effectively gather the energy and then distribute it to the house. I don't think that solar cells produce AC at 60 Hz. More likely DC. If producing electricity from solar, then you wire it into the house wiring upstream from a circuit breaker panel. Since the solar generated electricity may not be sufficient to completely power the building you may need to keep the two types of circuits discrete from each other so that you do not "backfeed," from the utility grid to your cells.
3. The only reason to build a solar home is that if you do it correctly the building needs practically no electricity from a utility. Hence no bills from said utility. If the home is truly self-sufficient it has that attractive and desirable feature, which may compensate for the elevated price tag of the house.

these arent so difficult. If I had access to google when I was in school, it would have been a breeze :D .
I assume your teacher is asking about Photovoltaic products .

4. YES. the rest is all you Kido . But I would say something about helping the environment , also not being (as)dependent on grid power or gas for heating or electricity. Good Luck=D
