Earth 4 Energy Explains
The Benefits of
Home Solar Systems
Many of us know that solar
energy is good, but few really understand why. Therefore, Earth 4 Energy
compiled a comprehensive list of solar energy advantages and tools necessary to
make Home Solar Systems with easy step by
step instructions.
Home Solar Power
Systems Advantages
1. Earth 4 Energy
Saves you money
- After the initial investment has been recovered, the
energy from the sun is practically FREE.
- The recovery/ payback period for this investment can
be very short depending on how much electricity your household uses.
- The savings are immediate and for many years to come.
- Earth4Energy allows you to take advantage of the
financial incentives that are available from the government that will reduce
your cost.
- If your home solar
systems produce more energy than you use, Earth 4 Energy can possibly
assist you with your utility company to buy energy from you, building up a
credit on your account! This is called net metering.
- Earth 4 Energy will save you money on your electricity
bill if you have one at all. Most experts agree that electric rates will
continue to rise faster than inflation. By having your own energy system you
will prevent future rate hikes from impacting you.
- Solar energy does not require any fuel.
- It's not affected by the supply and demand of fuel and
is therefore not subjected to the ever-increasing price of gasoline.
- The use of home solar power systems indirectly reduces
health costs.
2. Environmentally friendly
- Solar Energy is clean, renewable (unlike gas, oil and
coal) and sustainable, helping to protect our environment.
- Earth4Energy has all the tools necessary for you to do
your part to help save the environment.
- It does not pollute our air by releasing carbon
dioxide, nitrogen oxide, sulfur dioxide or mercury into the atmosphere like
many traditional forms of electrical generations does.
- Therefore Solar Energy does not contribute to global
warming, acid rain or smog.
- It actively contributes to the decrease of harmful
green house gas emissions.
- It's generated by your home solar systems where it is
needed.
- By not using any fuel, Solar Energy does not
contribute to the cost and problems of the recovery and transportation of
fuel or the storage of radioactive waste.
3. Independent/ semi-independent
- Solar Energy can be utilized to offset
utility-supplied energy consumption. It does not only reduce your
electricity bill, but will also continue to supply your home/ business with
electricity in the event of a power outage.
- Home Solar Power Systems can operate entirely
independent, not requiring a connection to a power or gas grid at all.
Systems can therefore be installed in remote locations (like holiday log
cabins), making it more practical and cost-effective than the supply of
utility electricity to a new site.
- Earth4Energy will help you create a dependable
alternative source of energy. The use of Solar Energy reduces our dependence
on foreign and/or centralized sources of energy, influenced by natural
disasters or international events and so contributes to a sustainable
future.
- Earth4Energy supports local job and wealth creation,
fuelling local economies.
4. Low/ no maintenance
- Home Solar Power Systems are virtually maintenance
free and will last for decades.
- Once installed, there are no recurring costs.
- They operate silently, have no moving parts, do not
release offensive smells and do not require you to add any fuel.
- More solar panels can easily be added in the future
when your family's needs grow.
