The Pursuit of Renewable Energy

As a child I didn’t know (or if not all of us) how important electricity is. All I cared about is that I can watch my favorite TV shows and play Atari with my friends. But as we come of age we realize that it is much more than that; electricity is the backbone of our modern existence! We use it continually for our daily living and to be able to industrially manufacture all our needs – one thing we need to be thinking – is the ways things are now permanent?

Well it won’t be long gone within our lifetime, but if we don’t make some big global changes it’s possible that the time will come that our cities will shut down and we will be living in darkness…..  For now the immediate concern to many is that our electric bills are way out of control; you have probably noticed that the cost per kilowatt is on a steady increase which is predicted to continue indefinitely. Economics has taught us the law of supply and demand; our power stations cannot keep up with our growing demand from our electricity hungry population!

And that is when the problem becomes more tangible. At this rate, we will exhaust the Earths fossil fuel resources in a little over than 100 years, and as that time nears our electricity bills will shoot up until the average person can no longer afford to pay for it.

These disturbing facts have lead Governments around the world to the pursuit of renewable and steady electricity that can keep up with our demands. Many alternative power sources are under extensive research. But only one thing has proved to be a viable solution to our problems, and the key to its revolutionizing success is its small and large scale applications….

.

The breakthrough are Solar PV panels, they can be used in both small residential and very large commercial scales that made it viable for all parts of our economy. Currently we do not have a source than can top what power station produce, but what we can do is to produce our own electricity every day at home. In this we will have the ability to eventually seize our independence from the use of conventional electricity.

If we can make this solar energy revolution a success, we can enjoy a never ending source of electricity without the insane bills that we currently have that will only get worse in the future.
