Compelling Reasons for Renewable Energy
Many people who consider installing renewable energy systems in their homes are put off by the relatively high investment. Why would you choose a solar thermal system that could cost thousands of dollars when you can buy an electric water heater for a couple hundred?
Do We Have Enough Fuel For The Future?
One of the most compelling arguments for widespread adoption of renewable energy systems is the frightening idea that the world is going to run out of fossil fuels. While this is not an immediate concern, there is a strong movement to switch entirely to renewable sources by the middle of the century.
Options for Backup Generators
A genset unit is durable and long-lasting if it is maintained well. A good quality generator has no problem with run times but it should be maintained regularly. For example, a diesel engine may need servicing at various hour intervals, such as 25, 250, 500 and 1,000 hours of operation.
How do Batteries Work?
Why is a battery bank necessary? Because an off-grid system does not allow you to store electricity easily and economically. There are other ways to store electricity but they are more expensive.
