The Best Things in Life Are Free – Solar Power

1. The Best Things in Life Are Free – Solar Power Energy, one of the essential part of our life. Any living thing in this planet needs energy to live. Plants use the light energy from the sun and convert them into chemical energy in the form of glucose. Animals and we humans eat these planets and indirectly we consume the energy that is stored by them. This is the life cycle. Ultimately, life on earth depends on the energy collected from the sun. The sun’s energy is also the source of weather changes. Solar energy in daily life: Solar energy is the energy that comes from the sun. The word solar itself means “of the sun”. These days solar energy is used in many ways. For water heating, cooking food, power generation, solar photovoltaic, greenhouse effect, water pumping etc.

2. Advantages of using solar panels for producing electricity: • One of the other important advantages of using solar energy is that it doesn’t pollute the environment as it doesn’t emit any carbon dioxide or any other toxic air. • This is a renewable source of energy so you don’t have to worry about it getting over one day, also sun’s light is absolutely free. • Solarenergy doesn’t not produce any noise pollution. Electricity when generated from the solar panel doesn’t make any sound. • When you use solar energy for electricity you do not have to think about the monthly electricity bills. • You can also make your country independent by installing solar power system at home for electricity generation, thus freeing our country from importing oil from other countries to generate electricity. • It does not require any fuel or water to produce electricity from the solar panel. • Solar panel run for more than 25 years and electricity is generates when there is sun’s light. They even work on cloudy weather conditions.

3. Tips before you buy a solar panel: • Make sure solar energy can meet all your requirements. Calculate the amount of electricity required and the number of solar panels required generating the required electricity. • Solar panels can be bought directly from the manufactures or via online retailers. You can also get these panels for rent. • Read and understand about “net metering”. A ‘net meter’ can track the electricity used also the electricity produced by the solar panel. Net metering is the cheap and effective way of keeping a track of the electricity generated and consumed by you. • These days there are many companies that manufacture solar panels. Find out the best dealer who can give you time to time service and warranties on the solar panels. • Governments have come up with many plans for promoting the use of solar panels for commercial and industrial purposes. There are tax benefits; special loans and subsidies are also given to those who like to set up a solar power plant. Save energy for our future generations by installing solar panels to produce electricity for your needs.
