He found a piece of land really cheap (a little over 1K/acre) and just wondering the cost of solar electricity would be there – no electricity yet in the area b / c is very rural and about 20 minutes from the city. Thanks so much! : O) Hey, ninguÌ?? No thanks! Those websites are not solar related — they 're on appliance repair. Come on people!

   It depends on how much electricity you plan to
   use, and how many days storage capacity you’ll
   require. – Those winters can be fierce.
   (If you plan to use electric cooking, heat, or A.C. -
   forget it).
   You’ll need:
   *Solar panels to gather a days worth of power in about
   4 hours.
   *A charger/inverter unit of the proper size for the load.
   * Batteries with storage capacity for two days of the load.

   Experience has shown that the system will cost
   about what you’d pay for 15 – 20 Yr.s worth of utility power.
