Wind & Solar Electricity by Andy Reynolds
The author has been generating his own electricity from wind and sun for several decades. In both edition one and two of Wind and Solar Electricity he shared his knowledge and experiences so that readers could do the same. Dramatic developments in technology and improved equipment availability in the last few years have meant that a third edition was thought appropriate, with new chapters, drawings, schematics, and photographs. The hands-on approach is retained in this edition, with lots of practical tips, as well as advice on using second-hand components where feasible. He provides practical advice on all aspects of building and maintaining a low-cost, low-carbon home-generation system. This book accompanies an online course - details in resources. Full colour. 204 pagesAndy Reynolds was born in London in 1948 and attended Grammar School in Harrow. In 1964 he took up an engineering apprenticeship. Deciding to leave industry in 1976, he joined the Hertfordshire Constabulary, serving in the Traffic Department and as a Scenes of Crime Officer. He still lives in Hertfordshire. Between 1976 and 2016 Andy also raced classic bikes, including Aermacchi, Seeley AJS and Matchless, Petty Norton, Manx Norton, BMW, Velocette, Paton, Honda K4, and Norton - JAP on real road and race-track circuits all over the UK and Europe. Andy lapped the TT course at over 100mph in practice for the 2008 Senior Classic Manx Grand Prix, and finished 3rd in the 2009 Senior Classic MGP. Andy was best known for his machine preparation, which brought the reliability that enabled him to finish in all but five of the 39 Isle of Man races that he entered.
