Going Green – Save The Planet
The average system installed in NJ eliminates 10,000 lbs of CO2 (carbon dioxide) gasses every year. This is the environmental equivalent of planting 1.35 acres of trees for each year your system is in use. Installing solar today will help decrease your carbon footprint (the amount you as an individual contribute to carbon based pollution by way of your home, car, etc…) immediately. Energy production and consumption is a major global problem as demand is increasing while supply is alternately decreasing, which means higher pricing for energy. The cost of electric power has doubled in the last 7 years. That’s a rate of 9% per year. These numbers will continue to rise like this unless we do something about it now.
By going solar you are choosing to support the generation of renewable energy sources that diversify our energy supply and help create a healthier environment, better climate, and a better NJ. Diminishing resources, the increasing cost of fossil fuels, and the impact on the environment make choosing solar more important than ever before. Recent natural disasters and world events reinforce our need to tap into clean, renewable, and available energy sources. Reduced demand for fossil fuels will improve the environment by reducing air and water pollution as well as the heat-trapping gases that cause global warming. You will greatly reduce your carbon footprint and benefit in the long run because the sun is 100% free and will never run out as a fuel source.
Use of solar energy releases no CO2, SO2 (sulfer dioxide), or NO2 (nitrogen dioxide) gases and doesn’t contribute to global warming. Photovoltaic’s are now a proven technology which are inherently safe, as opposed to some dangerous electricity generating technologies. Over its estimated life a photovoltaic module will produce much more electricity than is used in it’s production, and a 1000W, (this number being used for example purposes), module will prevent the emission of over 1.8 tons of CO2 per year of use. Photovoltaic systems make no noise and cause no pollution in operation. Solar energy is clean, silent, and freely available.
As long as the human species lives on earth, the sun will continue to shine and provide the necessary heat and huge amounts of energy. Unfortunately, this energy is mostly going to waste. No one is taking advantage of it, so the dependence on electric companies is on the rise. Luckily, solar panels will capture the energy of the sun. These panels can help you save energy, save money, and save the environment.
Energy saving is something every person in the developed world should be trying to do. Most everyone has heard about compact fluorescent light bulbs, turning off the lights, and buying energy efficient appliances, but they are limited in the amount of energy they can save. Solar panels do not consume energy, they produce energy. They provide energy for your appliances, so you need less electricity from the electric company.
Money has become a big issue mostly due to the large rise in oil and coal prices. The electric companies can not withstand the rise in the price of these natural resources so they continue to raise the price of electricity. As a result, every watt you save from your energy consumption can make a huge difference in your pocket. Solar panels allow you to use sun energy as well as energy from the electric company to power your home. As a result, you use less electricity from the electric company and, consequently, pay less. The energy produced from solar panels is free, of course. Furthermore, if you produce more energy than you consume, you can sell it to the electric company and get paid for it.
The environment is a big issue these days, and some of the biggest polluters are the electric companies. The only way to minimize their pollution is to reduce the use of their service. This is exactly what solar panels do. They provide you energy so you can reduce your dependence on electric companies and save the environment.
Due to the growing demand for clean sources of energy, the manufacture of solar cells and photovoltaic arrays has expanded dramatically in recent years. Photovoltaic production has been doubling every 2 years, increasing by an average of 48% each year since 2002, making it the world’s fastest-growing energy technology.
