As much as it’s crucial for businesses to stay competitive with their technology, they also must stay on the cutting edge of sustainable practices in the workplace. There are two ways to make a workplace sustainable: implementing technology in an existing location to make renewable energy or using environmentally friendly materials and building practices to construct a new location.  

The Business Energy Investment Tax Credit (ITC) is not ending, but 2019 is the end of the 30% benefit and will begin to reduce after this year. What does this mean for people looking to go solar? Act now on getting your systems purchased and installed. Either that or leave some cash on the table.

  Sustainability and environmentally friendly practices have become increasingly popular in recent years. The construction industry has become more invested than ever in lowering the environmental impact involved in their actions. An increase in public awareness, the passage of environmentally friendly legislation, and government incentives have all fueled the rising demand for eco-friendly construction practices. Here are a few sustainable construction trends that are growing in popularity.

Sites eager to boost their mining power and power generation reliability may benefit from contracting an independent power producer. Although short-term power solutions have their advantages, independent power producers are effective in combating power outages and other power-related problems.  

  Despite their spectacular rise in the past few years, solar panels are still perceived as a novelty ahead of its time. While people in general agree that solar technology is good for the environment, not many think of it as a viable alternative to fossil fuel energy. Let’s delve into the most persistent myths surrounding the solar panels and prove them false.

The future is always hard to predict. But by tracing current trends in energy use, the solar energy industry, and scientific research into the future, we can pull back the curtain just a bit to steal a glimpse of what solar power might look like in 2038.

  “The sun is the only safe nuclear reactor, situated as it is some ninety-three million miles away.” -  Stephanie Mills Sun has provided energy from time immemorial to all the living creatures on the earth for their growth and development. The concerns about climate change and continuous depletion of energy resources have paved way for renewable sources of energy. Technology has seen immense caliber in sun and hence the solar industry has become a pivot of renewable energy sector. The trend is on rise for all the good reasons.

  NET Zero can be looked at in a multi sectional or holistic approach of reducing Energy, Water, and Waste on a facility or home. It provides a way of reducing or completely eliminating wasted power and provide a better way to design efficiencies into buildings and homes during the design and building phase, but also provides ways to update existing structures to become more energy efficient.

Renewable energy has been making headlines over the last several years, especially solar power, which can be harnessed using a solar panel system. But despite all of the attention on solar power, many people are still unaware of the many benefits of using this type of renewable energy. Here’s a look at some of the benefits of installing a solar power system on your home:
