O’Connor draws from his years of experience to craft a how-to guide needed by everyone around the world. O’Connor has conducted and taught the installation/maintenance of Off Grid solar projects to people and communities as far away as the central African rainforest and right in his own backyard of Oakland, California. About the Author Joe O'Connor, solar entrepreneur and product designer, has installed solar energy systems in USA, Haiti, Guatemala, Portugal, and Democratic Republic of the Congo. O'Connor began writing this book in 2016 after realizing that there is no resource focusing solely on building Off Grid Solar energy systems for a global audience.
