$mart Power: An Urban Guide to Renewable Energy. In the much anticipated followup to "The Renewable Energy Handbook for Homeowners", Bill Kemp has taken the wisdom from his first book and tailored it to a more urban audience. This book provides the definite overview for someone living in a city or suburbs to reduce their energy bills and have less impact on the planet. Since most city dwellers aren't going to put a wind tower on their property, "$mart Power" emphasizes using the sun's energy to heat your water, make electricity or help heat your home or apartment. It also includes an updated section on heating and cooling, as well new sections on transportation and biofuels. This on top of all information provided in the original book on efficiency and reducing your energy demands, as well as how to make and sell your own electricity back into the electricity grid. The payback in your bills will pay for $mart Power in months, and will continue to provide a huge return on your investment for as long as you live.
