Today our world is going through from a major problem i.e. global warming. To protect our environment and next generation’s future we have to take some steps. To save resources we have to adopt eco friendly habits like solar panels. Use solar panels and online audits at business and home to reduce electricity hikes and save our future.

As a responsible world citizen, start looking for alternate energy solutions like solar energy and wind energy. Employing these alternate power solutions is extremely feasible and cost-effective. You will not only cut down your power bills but also contribute to a better future of the world.

I like the fact that some states are implementing new ideas for alternative energy. In California, there have been projects which install solar panels on schools, businesses, churches, etc. that then sell energy back to the grid. This is a good use of space and benefits all.
I mentioned it before but this year was the first year that solar energy made a different during our peak Summer usage in California. We normally have a couple of rolling blackouts as demand outpaces supply. But, this year for the first time, the energy produced by solar installations and sent back to the grid filled the gap. There was no need for rolling blackouts. We need more of these efforts in many states.

We do?
I don't remember any lately.
Warnings of possible rolling blackouts once in awhile, but I don't actually remember any since the Enron affair in 2001.

I have seen articles suggesting that Southern California Edison, which has a nuclear power plant idle because of improper design, was only able to avoid rolling blackouts this past summer because so many SoCal homeowners and businesses had installed solar photovoltaic grid-tie systems.
It makes sense too, because solar power is near peak output at about the same time as all of the air conditioners start coming on.
We have been converting sunshine to electricity since May at our house, and I'm glad to say we have produced over 17MWh in that time without burning anything or producing radioactive waste material.

Also, in California, they are implementing a program where if you purchase an electric vehicle, you get a free EV charger for your home, this could even increase the value of your property actually.

Our socially beneficial and eco-friendly project promotes use of solar panels as a means for indirectly fighting mafia in Italy and boosting organic agriculture. We have 1 more week to go. You can MAKE a CHANGE by supporting or promoting our project. Visit our crowd funding campaign at the Indiegogo Website: Solar energy on mafia free land
