Appliances

Energy-efficient window air-conditioning units, washing machines, and refrigerators: Replacement of everyday common appliances with Energy Star efficient appliances can greatly reduce a household’s energy consumption and cost to the consumer.

Solar Energy

Solar panels, which often sit on top of a roof, collect solar radiation from the sun and actively convert that energy into electricity to be used by the home’s electrical system. Solar panels are a viable alternative energy source, both environmentally and economically.

Wind Power

A small wind turbine, which is installed on top of a tower or roof, collects kinetic energy from the wind and converts it to electricity that is can be used by the home's electrical system. Wind power generation produces zero carbon dioxide emissions, which is important with our concern over climate change.
