How do you transform your home to use solar power>?

Answer 1

You buy solar panels, installation hardware for your roof, an inverter, batteries, a rack to put the batteries and inverter into, and possibly a transfer switch if you don't want to be completely dependant on the local power utility.

These websites have tutorials that give a lot more details:
