Hydro Power Micro-hydro turbines require that water be piped from a higher elevation to a lower elevation where the turbine is installed. The power generated depends on dynamic head, the amount of water flow and the efficiency of the turbine-generator combination.	Solar Power Solar technology makes it possible for home owners to have dependable power from the sun. Mass production has significantly reduced the price of renewable energy systems and their components. Solar systems with battery-based backup power can ensure reliable power even when the utility grid is down.	Inverters The inverter is an electronic device that converts direct current DC power from batteries or solar modules into alternating current AC power to operate lights, appliances, etc. inside the home.

Renewable energy provides a wide range of home power solutions utilizing environmentally conscious and cost effective products that enhance the self-reliant lifestyle. In urban areas the only reasonable renewable energy choice is solar power.  For those living in rural areas wind power and hydroelectric systems are not only viable but in many cases more cost-effective.   As more people have made the move to renewable energy sources, favorable economies of scale have allowed technologies to advance exponentially. Renewable energy systems are modular.  They can be purchased as a beginning system and expanded later, as cash flow permits, actually decreasing the overall cost if borrowing is involved.  There are multiple hybrid systems, most commonly photovoltaics (solar power) with a generator backup.   Be aware that owning your own alternative energy system requires commitment.  You will need to understand its use, installation, monitoring, maintenance and some simple troubleshooting so your dealer or the manufacturer can be of assistance should you have a problem.
