If we are being honest, most homeowners look into rooftop solar systems for the sheer savings benefits. This is a worthy cause because the average solar panel owner saves hundreds a year. We are all about empowering our customers to make changes that benefit their household. But, many don’t realize the awesome environmental benefits this switch can make and how they can contribute. We have a few facts to bring clarity to the subject.
Rooftop Solar is a Source of Renewable Energy
What is renewable energy? Renewable energy, also referred to as clean energy means that it comes from natural resources that are always replenished. For example, sunshine and wind are endless resources. In El Paso and Las Cruces we have no shortage on these beautiful, natural means of energy. Why not take full advantage of this free, never-ending resource. Even through cloudy weather and winter months the sun city benefits from this renewable energy source.
Rooftop Solar Reduces Air Pollution and Water Usage
The alternative to renewable energy, fossil fuel, creates so much pollution. The constant depositing of harmful toxins and CO2 into the air makes it so hard for our environment’s natural ways of cleaning the air to happen. This compounded with depleting the Earth of natural resources is only making a big problem bigger.
The other alternatives, hydropower and nuclear energy, use large amounts of water to produce electricity. Dams that are used to produce electricity can have a huge, negative and often detrimental impact on an ecosystem. Solar panel systems, on the other hand, create energy without harmful pollution or water waste.
Make a Difference for the Long-Run
We can fight the long-run battle and help the environment through going solar. We can fight climate change by lowering the carbon count one home at a time. While lowering global warming emissions, reducing land and habitat loss and water use, we can make a big impact as more homeowners come on board.
