solar panels efficiency
Solar panels needed, good idea or not?

If all new homes should have solar panels installed when built, can you imagine saving money for the homeowner and the reduced need for external power plants and the environment has suffered enough. Susie Harrison and his favorite color two daughters these days is green. This is due to their new environment management initiatives in the east side will be a model of energy efficiency. Last week, the panels solar PV put on the roof of the Helen Street house is being built by Sound Coalition and Habitat for Humanity of Coastal Fairfield County. The 14 panels installed solar can generate 3 kilowatts of electricity during the day and will provide most of the family's daily electricity needs. When Harrison's house needs the power, it will flow to the provider network and serve the rest of the neighborhood. http://www.greenmadesimple.com/projects/details/solar-panels-habitat- house will bring a future – saving energy

The main disadvantage of solar panels is cost. Thousands of dollars and the amortized cost is still high. As an example. If panels solar installed cost of $ 2,000. What does not surprise me. At 3 KW per day and expenses of the utility company 15 cents per KW. It takes more 12 years just to recoup their investment. There is much less expensive ways to go green. If every house had a radiant barrier as an example http://www.radiosity3000.com/ reduces summer cooling bill by 15 to 20%. The initial cost is lower and is amortized over about 3 years.
