Have you recently decided to start going green with solar panels? It can be difficult to put everything on solar power, in the beginning, but you can take some serious steps toward complete reliance on solar power, rather than fossil fuels. This may, in fact, be just what you need to take the ultimate step and put your entire home on solar power, rather than relying on your local utilities. Look at some of the ways you can begin the process:
You can start by putting some small items on solar power. Once all of your small items are on solar power, you will see all of the benefits, and probably will not be able to resist putting the rest of your house on it.
Do you have an electric car? If so, you use charging stations for electric cars. Did you know your charging stations for electric cars can be powered using solar energy? Essentially, that means you have almost completely removed the cost of transportation from your budget!
What does your barn or garage cost you? In some places you pay an extra $20-30 just to have another building provided with electricity. Instead of tying it into your house to save money, why not just run that building off of solar energy? You will not have to pay that extra monthly fee in order to have electricity in the building, but you will have the energy you need to be able to go complete your projects, or just enjoy your outbuilding or garage.
