4.0 out of 5 stars
Not exactly what we wanted.,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Solar Energy Pocket Reference (Energy Pocket Reference Series) (Paperback)
This book is rich in technical detail, with graphs and charts that are mind-boggling. We were looking for something to help us optimize solar energy for a home in Brazil and found this book lacked information for this particular purpose. Only buy this book if you are already fairly well versed in energy and solar related mathematics.
