The use of natural energy sources to provide heating and electricity is rapidly increasing in popularity among homeowners. The more natural and renewable energy sources is needed to take the burden off our current dependency on fossil fuels.
We can attempt to save the earth from devastation if we act now, and by making the switch to natural and renewable energy sources. many other issues need to be addressed, making the switch is a major step forward in the fight against climate change, and the fight for a cleaner environment. Switching over will not be easy nor cheap. Some of the kits are fairly descent but some can be very expensive.
Below are just a handful of the advantages relating to the use of natural and renewable energy sources:
•· The sun, wind, tides, are free to use.
•· After the initial cost of; solar panels, wind turbines equipment, the only cost to the consumer is the required maintenance.
•· No more price rises from gas, energy or electricity companies.
•· Use as much or as little of the renewable electricity of which you generate, without feeling guilty for any wastage.
•· Oil, gas and coal supplies will most likely someday run out, if we have the infrastructure in place to generate energy from natural sources, this won't be as much of a problem.
•· Government grants are available for some natural energy projects depending on your location.
Below, you can see a selection of the disadvantages relating to the use of clean energy sources as opposed to fossil fuels:
•· The initial cost of renewable energy technologies may be expensive.
It is unlikely you will be able to totally replace your current energy or power supply to the use of renewable energy, but you could get close with a realistic budget and the implementation of different energy technologies, such as a wind turbine and solar panel combination.
