The sun provides for all your energy needs. You only need to use the right technology which is ALREADY available. You'd already know this, but think you can't afford the technology. The below information will assist you:
Check Government Rebates: Contact your government to see if they offer a rebate scheme for the installation of "green energy" technology. For example, you may only need to pay $3000 for a solar system that costs $10,000.
Make your own solar panels: you can purchase cheap solar cells, and with a bit of soldering, construct full solar panels. While they may not be as "pretty" as manufactured panels, they will do the same job at a fraction of the price. See video for making your own solar panels:
Buy cheap parts for solar panels:
Ebay: Ebay is a good source of parts from various suppliers. Prices and stock are changing often.
