Solar Energy Solutions
Our natural, non-renewable energy resources are being used up much faster than the earth can produce them. Our job, as humans, is to find other ways to power up our society. If we don’t act now, we will run out of non-renewable energy and the world will come to a screeching halt. If we are smart and proactive, we will be prepared for this inevitable event. One renewable energy source that we can use is solar energy. Solar energy is the most plentiful energy source on the planet. One of the best things about solar power is that it is 100% free. Another benefit of using solar power is the fact that it is good for our environment which is an amazing thing. There is nothing wrong with being green!
Some people have the misconception that solar power is difficult to obtain. The truth is that solar energy is a very cost-effective and easy to install way to get off of the power grid. The are many affordable solar energy solutions are very easy to setup and will end up paying for themselves in no time at all. Imagine not having to pay the power company anymore and, in some cases, you can actually be sent a check because you are supplying power back into the system. Not only will you be cutting down on your bills by using these solar systems, you are reducing your carbon footprint at the same time. This will be beneficial to us, as well as future generations.

Solar Cooking Systems
Solar cookers are cooking tools which use zero fuel to cook food other than the sun’s energy. It’s, basically, a small oven that you can make complete meals for up to 5 people. The things you can do with a solar oven can be surprising. You can boil water, bake and even roast your food without using any non-renewable energy. While it can, sometimes, take longer to cook your food, you are doing it without using electricity or natural gas. This method of using solar energy is a perfect way to save you money and make great, naturally cooked food at the same time.
Solar Lighting Systems
Solar energy can be converted into electricity to light up your whole home. This is accomplished by using the sun’s light energy to charge solar cells with energy. This is an amazingly easy and cost effective way to provide power for your home. This method even works during the nighttime. The solar cells actually save the energy they have gained throughout the day so you can use it at night. By simply installing a solar energy system in your house you can save some serious money on electricity bills for years and years to come.
Solar Heating Systems
Using a solar heating system to heat your home is an excellent way to reduce your non-renewable energy usage. These systems are pretty economical to have installed, too. Some states and/or the US Government may even give you a tax credit for having a solar heating system installed in your home. Some of the earlier systems were very expensive or they were huge and ugly but advancements in the technology of solar panels have made this no longer an issue. There are companies which install these systems and are very professional in appearance and relatively low cost. If you have a solar heating system installed now, it should pay for itself in 3 to 4 years by saving you money on your electric bill. Once it’s paid for, you are then receiving heat for free. There is also the fact that you can brag to your friends and coworkers about living in a green home because you aren’t relying on non-renewable energy sourced to heat your home anymore.
