Subject: 10 Reasons Why You Should Go Solar Today

Solar Energy.....you heard about it, however have you ever considered putting it to use in your own house?

There is really no excuse to not to think about the reasons to start going for it!

Here are Ten Best Reasons For Going Solar Today:


1. Non-renewable sources of energy are fast running out,
becoming more and more expensive to find and distribute,
and most produce lasting negative effects on the health of
the planet. Think Fracking and all the problems that causes.

The burning of fossil fuels may be contributing to global
warming, but increasingly the cost is felt firstly in your
utility charges.

It won't matter if energy comes from coal, gas or nuclear
energy plants.

The cost will keep on rising.

2. Solar power is available in just about every location
where the sun shines, and it will last for as far into the
future as you can imagine.

3. Access to sunlight is free, and increasingly technology
makes it easier to convert into the electricity needed for
domestic and commercial use.

Better photovoltaic cells are more efficient and batteries
cheaper and more effective at storage.

4. As a renewable source of energy, solar power has less
effect on the landscape than other forms, such as wind
power.

Gone are the need for large towers and the associated
noise of giant windmills.

5. In addition to the above, the average home can easily
be converted to solar power as part of retrofitting or
roof replacement.

No special structural strengthening or electrical wiring
is needed to use this form of power.

You will need a flat pad for the battery housing, but the
space it takes up is only a few square feet.

The solar panels are light and easily reparable by even an
average DIY enthusiast.

6. The only downside is the potential hazards in disposing
of the batteries, but in contrast with other power
generation methods, the maintenance and servicing costs
once installed are minimal.

7. You can build your own solar power system!

Check online for some of the options, and you will be
surprised at how simple and economical these will be to
construct.

This will mean you can reduce your utility bill and take a
little control over your own destiny! In a blackout or
energy shortage, you'll be much better off with a home
solar energy system.

The best thing about solar power is that as more and more
domestic users seek out this option, the price of systems
continues to fall!

They are also becoming more and more efficient and easier
to install and maintain.

8. This source of electrical generation has been around
for decades and is tried and true in environments as harsh
as space itself!

Remarkably, small-scale units even work in the harshest
climates, coming to life in summers to provide power for
fire monitoring in wilderness locations as well as
surveying at the earth's poles.

9. Yes, you need the sun to shine for solar energy to
work. But even on semi-cloudy days enough power can be
generated for the average home demands in most locations
and seasons.

Because they are relatively lightweight, solar panels can
be used by remote locations because transportation of the
materials is relatively cheap and simple.

Just find a location facing the sun!

10. Solar power is clean energy with no pollutants or
environmental effect during operation.

No need for dams, noisy and unsightly windmills or pipes
crossing the land - all of which are required by
geothermal power plants.

Solar power is the energy source for the future, not just
for the above reasons, but because its cost will never
increase.

Solar Renewable Energy

Solar Renewable Energy
The dream of free energy from the sun has been something of a quest for many generations of scientists ,but the latest advances in technology are bringing this form of power to the home owner.

  Solar renewable energy can be used for lighting, cooking, water heating and even powering vehicles. You have probably already been the beneficiary of renewable solar energy without knowing it, as some traffic signs already use the sun to keep them functioning when other power can't reach them. In your own home you can create the basic solar unit from some black plastic piping and a small pump - and within minutes warm, and even hot water, will be able to be circulated to a pool or under floor heating system.

 If you are a more adventurous DIY home owner, a kitset for a roof mounted set of solar panels can provide hot water to a storage tank for use in most household situations. You may use this solar renewable energy just as a top up for other types of heating, and there will be a saving in your utility bills too. You should consider installing solar photo voltaic panels that allow electricity to be produced in the same form as that obtained from a battery. This form of solar renewable energy is employed in wilderness areas to power electric fencing and remote monitoring systems for weather reporting. The space station uses this form of power and while it means a substantial outlay for the homeowner, if you want to look at green options this certainly is a worthwhile one. You need a lot more roof space for this type of panel and more wiring that might be best left to a qualified electrician to install. The real attraction for solar renewable energy is that you will always get energy when the sun is shining. There are very few working parts in the systems that could wear out, making them low maintenance as well.

  More benefits of solar renewable energy systems include that they make no noise, and can look stylish when mounted on the roof facing in the direction of the sun's rays. The average home can easily incorporate some form of solar power, even if it is just to illuminate pathways around the home.

 Major utility companies are slow to adopt solar renewable energy and this is probably because at present there are few incentives to make change - and they can just pass fuel cost increases on to the consumer without any real resistance. Better technology has developed photo cells to the point where they are becoming a competitive generation alternative, but you needn't wait for your utility company to get up to speed with this.

Take matters into your own hands and become self sufficient for your home's energy needs. The logistics of solar renewable energy mean you won't have to spend a lot at first to get some benefit. You can get a feel for how it works, because in lots of communities there are solar energy companies more than willing to demonstrate their product.

  We hope that this article will stimulate your interest enough to take at least a look at what can be achieved.

The more people like you that get involved, the cheaper units will be.
