The burning of fossil fuels, such as the coal used to generate electricity for our homes, causes greenhouse gas emissions, which trap heat in the earth’s atmosphere, resulting in global warming and climate change. In Australia, per capita electricity consumption, powered mainly by coal, is high. The uncomfortable reality is that most of us are directly contributing to a looming environmental catastrophe.
One simple and relatively cheap way that we can start to address this problem is by switching our electricity to accredited Green Power. This means buying power from clean renewable sources such as solar energy.
The average Australian household emits around seven tonnes of greenhouse gases from its domestic electricity consumption alone every year (that’s not including greenhouse gas emissions from other sources such as our cars).
Save Money!
Electricity prices in Australia increased by 15.7% in 2009 and more price hikes are projected for 2010. The best way to protect your family against the ever-increasing costs of energy is to install a photovoltaic grid connect solar system for your home. With new rebates available, there’s never been a better time to go solar and start producing your own clean, green, renewable power straight from the sun. Add Value To Your Home
Eco-friendly homes fetch more money on the property market and the demand for sustainable houses is constantly increasing. In fact, most new homes in Australia must now meet sustainability standards. From January 1, 2010, a sustainability declaration must be completed by the seller of any house, townhouse or unit to inform the buyers about the sustainability features of a property in four key areas such as energy, water, access, and safety. By installing a grid connect solar system and a hot water heat pump system in your home, you can make your house more energy efficient and significantly increase its sustainability rating; in turn increasing its resale value.
