Would you invest in a residential solar power system given today’s economy? Why or Why not?
Okay, here’s the thing.
I would invest in solar panels if I had eliminated my extra electicity usage already.
It can be very expensive, and simply cutting your electricity use at home is usually more economical and a more logical first step.
unplug appliances when not in use
shut off lights (duh)
turn heat down
turn a/c up (warmer)
put systems on a power bar (television, computer) and shut down the bar
sweep instead of vacuum floors
shut off computer when not using it
The less you use, the less you have to pay for. The less has to be generated. Once you’ve done everything you can for power savings, then look into alternate production methods.
