Solar The Alternative Energy Source

September 8, 2007 – 9:29 am

My friend is building his house and I asked him if he is going to power it with Solar energy. He said no because solar energy system is not that advanced in the country and that it will cost more in the long run to replace the solar panels after every five years or so. Well, I did not know that but he is an engineer and he should know about these things.

However, I have been thinking that should I have my own house, I would implement solar energy at least in some parts of the house. Sometime back, I read an article that there is a residential area somewhere in the United States where the all the houses are powered by Solar energy. I know that they will have immediate savings on their electricity bill. As we all know, power has been getting more and more expensive and over here, we have two tiers of rates to contend with!

I would definitely love to get Solar water heating and lighting in some parts of the house and also the garden. I find that these are the places that we could save some electricity on. I trust that by the time I am able to afford my own house, solar energy would be more advanced and widely used in the country that it will not be too costly to implement.
