Solar Thermal Solar heating is the most mature of the Solar technologies. Not only have solar hot water systems been used and proven for decades, but people have taken advantage of the sun’s energy for heating purposes for thousands of years. From the early cave dweller’s preference for Southern exposure to Greek and Roman solar architectural design, Passive Solar planning has always been the most sensible and efficient way to live comfortably. Space heating with the sun’s energy is not only functional and reliable, but has little to no recurring costs. A new 4,000 square-foot home can be designed and constructed to use no utility heat sources and be built for less cost than a comparable model built using common construction methods. All this without any sacrifice in comfort. Hot Air Panels are usually the most economical way to heat your existing home with solar energy. The increased warmth you will enjoy in the winter comes with a payback period of just 1-2 years. Solar Water Heating also gives you a lot of bang for your buck. These systems are simple, reliable, and can offer big savings on your heating bill for many years to come. Solar Cookers offer a great way to prepare food with free energy. Great for camping, remote locations, or even backyard barbeques, these cookers really work! Passive solar design makes use of windows, shading, insulation, and building orientation to minimize the need for heating and cooling. The right design can save thousands of dollars per year in energy costs. All this with free heat from the sun!
