Save On Your Power Bills Without Solar Energy

We all know the importance of the continued global development for alternative energy

sources for environmental protection and as a means utilizing clean alternatives to provide energy for future generations. Solar power is at the core of this movement as the sun's energy is the most plentiful resource available and technological advancements are achieved continuously allowing societies to benefit from this source.

In order to continue efforts seeking environmental protection and solar power must continue to remain our focus. However, it is possible to use electricity in a more efficient and effective manner. Although electricity is a "dirty" energy source that is costly to the environment and to us as consumers, it can be utilized with these global and cost savings in mind.

A technology utilizing run capacitors has been utilized in many industries for years and now how residential and small business applications. These capacitors condition the electrical current allowing for the more efficient use of electricity at a lower cost. Furthermore, the various motors in your appliances throughout your home run cooler and more efficiently thus prolonging their life.

Home and business owners can now install a small electrical box to the incoming power source containing at least two run conductors that will influence the power factor as measured by your utility company. The low-cost power factor capacitors act similar to a battery reserve as it smoothes incoming power spikes. This is particularly beneficial to your HVAC system or refrigerators and freezers containing motors that run for long periods of time.

The motors in your appliances are now able to run more efficiently. The excess electricity that comes into your systems and appliance motors is released in the form of heat which has long term operational effects on the motor. Furthermore, because the power factor capacitors settle electrical spikes they also act as a surge protector for your electrical motors.

Utility companies look at your power factor as an energy efficiency scale and your rates may also be affected with a low power factor rating. Many home and business owners installing power factor capacitors to their electrical panels are experiencing a 10-20% reduction on their power bill. The cost for a homeowner to install a capacitor box is about $600-$800 while a small business may have larger costs depending upon building size and equipment usage.

As a result you can now save on your power bill and improve the life expectancy of your appliances without installing a single solar cell. This step also reduces the overall energy output requirements should you decide to install solar power to your home in the future.
