Description

1. Environmental quality and preservation There are no by-products (emissions) associated with a photovoltaic array, solar (DHW) systems, or wind machines. These systems provide 20 to 50 years of environmentally benign energy. No pollution. The sun produces energy every day. The wind as a resource is site specific. The pollution associated with fossil fuel burning power plants is profound. The average Michigan household using 750 kilowatts of electricity a month contributes 33 pounds of Nitrogen Oxides (creating ground level ozone and acid rain), 72 pounds of Sulfur Dioxide (primary acid rain contributor, and aggravates asthma and cardiovascular disease), and 16,010 pounds of Carbon Dioxide, (the primary contributor to the greenhouse effect, global warming ), EVERY YEAR. For every kilowatt of energy your renewable energy system generates, you avoid the pollution associated with that same energy that would otherwise have been purchased from the grid.

Renewable energy systems will allow you to use the energy of the sun and wind to power your home. These systems can provide your home or business with a portion, or even all, of its energy needs. This is a matter of your specific energy consumption, and the size of your renewable energy systems. Historically, the out-of-pocket cost for electricity, natural gas, and oil has been very low. Recently, however, we have seen the cost of these resources increase. Gasoline is the most obvious fossil fuel showing its cost growth, natural gas to heat homes and water is starting to cost more, and electricity, depending on where you live, is also creeping upward. In California, electricity has reached $.30/kilowatthour, roughly three times that of Michigan.
