You must be familiar with renewable energy, and might be aware of alternative sources of energy. Newspapers, radios, magazines and most public media rave about the importance of using renewable energy. Rarely will you find information about how you can use renewable energy in your home and reduce your power consumption. We have provided you with a few simple strategies that you can at home to eliminate your electricity bill.Let's start with the first source of renewable energy, solar power. Solar energy is free but most people are afraid of the cost of solar cells. A myth about solar cells is that they are expensive and not a feasible option for residential properties. Honestly, you can find service providers who will send you competitive quotes and a range of options based on your electricity consumption. You don't need to invest USD100,000 when you need a solar panel that costs a thousand dollars.In fact, if a thousand dollars is too expensive too, you can build your own. There are plenty of 'do-it-yourself' websites that will give you all the support you need. You can also consider purchasing, solar powered devices to help you avoid consuming electricity. For instance, you have solar powered cookers, solar powered heaters, air conditioners, etc.Another source of energy, you must have heard about is 'wind'. To harness wind energy, all you need to do is install wind turbines. If your home is close to the sea, offshore or at a high altitude you should consider this as a feasible option. It might seem expensive to install but you will save forty percent when compared to your electricity consumption. If you are a 'go green' advocate, you can have your neighbourhood switch to utilizing wind energy. A small wind farm (more than 10 windmills), can be an economical option and help you reduce a considerable amount on your electricity bill.If you are lucky enough to have your home in the countryside or a farm, a very cheap alternative source of energy is biogas. Installing a bio gas plant is a one time investment, and you can switch your entire power consumption to this source of energy. Biogas produce methane gas that is created by fermentation of slurry (fermented house hold waste, animal waste, sewage, etc). Biogas is very popular alternative source of energy in developing countries and can be used globally.There are plenty of renewable energy alternatives that are used today, and every effort is being made to reduce costs. If are flexible with the cost, you can always choose from bio fuel, geothermal energy, etc.For those concerned about the environment, switching to a renewable source of energy can help you reduce your carbon footprint and eliminate your electricity bill.
