How can you tell if you can use solar energy in your home?

I live in the Midwest where we have a lot of non-sunny days.

It may still be worth considering depending on what side your house is facing. If it faces the rising sun to the east, it will gather some energy on sunny mornings.

I am also from the mid-west. We can use solar energy in our homes. You would need to call a local solar energy company (StarPak is a good one.)

Even though you live in an area that has alot of non-sunny days, you still might be able to use solar energy. Some solar pannels can store the sun's energy to power your house on a day when sunlight is not available.

There are plenty of areas in the Midwest and other places where you think that solar energy would not be a viable option, where it actually is. There are various types of solar energy as well which may be a better option. Not all solar businesses are created equal and you should check around for the right one.
