Home Solar Energy Systems

The use of home solar energy systems is becoming increasingly popular in many parts of the world.

Solar energy systems for our homes can provide both heating and electricity, which can reduce bills, while also helping the environment.

Rising energy costs has allowed solar energy to become the fastest growing renewable energy source in use today.

It is estimated that by the year 2010, the U.K will be importing around 90% of it's energy demand, and this is sometimes a decisive factor for many consumers considering the installation of solar energy systems.

An example of a home solar energy system.The main factor which puts many consumers off the idea of a home solar energy system, is the cost of installation.

Many of the solar electricity panels and solar hot water panels available today, can be quite expensive for the average buyer.

Renewable energy grants are available in some countries, as an incentive towards the installation of various home energy systems.

These grants can sometimes be a great help in getting your home energy system installation plans moving. You should consult your local council or government for information and terms of any available grants which may apply to you.
Solar Energy For A Healthier Environment

The installation of home energy systems not only helps to reduce your energy bills, but also helps the environment in many ways.

If every home had some means of harnessing renewable energy sources to provide electricity or heating, this would take a huge burden off power stations, resulting in the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions, and other harmful gases.

Tied in with the above statement is the mining and transportation of fossil fuels.

If we could reduce energy demand from the use of fossil fuels, we would save more energy through the mining and transportation processes. This would also allow us to conserve a greater percentage of the remaining fossil fuel reserves.

The installation of home solar power systems are likely to play a greater part in the future of energy production, and as we start to see more building regulations concerning energy efficiency, we will hopefully see home solar energy systems coming as standard with future homes.
