Doityourselfenergy.org was recently launched to help educate homeowners on how to create their own clean, renewable energy by harnessing the power of the sun and wind. It may sound like science fiction to some, but this type of power is already being used all around us. Unfortunately, power companies want to keep much of this information hidden so they can continue hiking up prices.

There's no denying the fact that most U.S. homeowners are struggling just to get by in these tough economic times. Ever since the financial collapse happened 5 years ago, families are passing on luxuries and focusing on paying for their necessities. While some of these necessities have lowered in price, energy prices have constantly risen. So, just how bad are energy prices across the country? Owners of small 2 to 3 bedroom homes in certain regions are finding monthly bills of $300 or more sent by their power company.

The goal of Doityourselfenergy.org is to create a community-driven environment where homeowners and visitors can learn how to power their homes by using solar panels and wind turbines. Many people don't realize that 100% clean and renewable energy is all around; we just have to harness it. If you are willing to invest the initial time, energy and money into building your own solar panels or wind turbines, it will pay off by releasing you from the clutches of the money-hungry power companies.

Although Doityourselfenergy.org is still a fairly new website, they have already added a number of helpful articles, videos and other resources that are completely free for visitors to access. Whether making your own energy is something you're interested in or not, you can still likely benefit from their home energy-saving tips located on the site. One of the sites most recent articles compares the different types of home Doityourselfenergy.orlight bulbs available on the market and reveals which one saves the most energy.

The bottom line is that if more homeowners knew how to use solar or wind energy to power their homes, they probably would. If you don't have experience in constructing solar panels or wind turbines , it's easy to feel lost and confused.

Doityourselfenergy.org offers a plethora of easy-to-understand resources aimed at people who have no previous experience in building these devices.

One of the lesser-known benefits to creating solar or wind energy for your home is that you can actually sell your unused energy back to the power companies. After installing your new energy-harnessing devices, you'll need to contact the power company to tell them about your new initiative. When one of their employees comes out to modify your meter, you can transfer any extra energy that isn't used by your back into the power grid for a credit to your account. This credit can then be used to power your home on cloudy or rainy days when your solar panels aren't working.
