Practical Photovoltaics, the now-classic reference on solar electricity, offers a unique combination of technical discussion and practical advice. Written by physicist, lecturer, and solar home dweller Richard Komp, the book is both a comprehensive guide to the theory, manufacture, present status and future of photovoltaics, and a detailed installation and maintenance manual. Included are well-illustrated, step-by-step instructions for constructing your own solar module, a creative approach to demystifying the technology.
