Alternative Energy for the Home

Monday
We have a great need to become more energy independent, and do not necessarily depend on the supply of fossil fuels from unstable nations who are often hostile to us and our interests.

The trend toward homes that are supported by alternative energy sources, ranging from wind turbines and solar collection cells to hydrogen fuel cells and biomass gases, is one that needs to continue into the 21st century and beyond.

But even beyond this factor, we as individuals need to get "off the grid" and also had to stop so dependent on government-lobbying giant oil corporations who, while they are not really involved in a conspiracy in disguise, but has a stranglehold on people when comes to heating their homes (and if not through oil, then heat usually supplied by grid-driven electricity, another clutches).

Power providers may have to diversify their business to make up for revenues lost through household energy microgeneration. He was referring to the conclusions by a group of UK analysts, herself included among them, who call themselves Carbon Free.

Carbon Free concludes that, assuming traditional energy prices remain at current levels or rise, microgeneration (meeting all of the home is the energy one needs to install alternative energy technologies like solar panels wind turbines) would be to supply what the Internet power house turned into a house communication and data collection, and ultimately this will have a profound effect on the business of existing energy supply companies.

Carbon Free has been studying the growing trend toward alternative energy-using homes in England and the West. This tendency is encouraged by the government's recommendations are always more numerous and sometimes support the research and development of alternative energy, the rising cost of oil and other fossil fuels, concerns about environmental degradation, and the desire to become energy independent.
.
Free carbon analysis also shows that energy companies themselves have jumped in on the game and seek to leverage microgeneration to their own advantage for opening new markets for themselves.

Another conclusion of Carbon Free is that solar energy hot water heating technology is an efficient technology for reducing home water heating costs in the long term, although initially quite expensive to install. However, solar power is not cost-effective for companies, because they require too much in the way of a special pipeline to implement solar energy water heaters.
