Five Ways to Save Energy in Honor of Earth Day

Here at Solaire Energy Systems, we are proud to honor Earth Day on April 22nd. As part of our commitment to help you choose a greener, more sustainable lifestyle, here are five ways you can save energy by reducing your overall energy consumption.

1. Ride your bike. Enjoy the beautiful Southern Californian weather by hopping on your bike. Your body will be happy that you are exercising and the earth will be happy that you are reducing your carbon footprint.

2. Turn off office lights at night. How many times have you seen office lights shining brightly at midnight? Either there are a lot of workaholics in San Diego or someone is wasting a hideous amount of energy. Don’t let either one be you.

3. Conserve water by only washing full loads of dishes and laundry. This small step can help you save thousands of gallons of water every year. It’s as simple as that.

4. Adjust your thermostat. Sometimes it is all too easy to search for the ‘just right’ temperature. However setting your thermostat at an unreasonable temperature wastes energy and your money. Pick a moderate temperature and stick with it.

5. Go Solar! This Earth Day, contact solar companies in San Diego and show your commitment to the planet by using solar energy every day of the year.

Happy Earth Day from your favorite San Diego solar panel installers, Solaire Energy Systems.

Solar Energy Is the Fastest Growing Industry In America

Contribute to the growing economy by contacting solar energy San Diego company Solaire Energy Systems on their site.

The Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) announced last week that solar energy is the fastest growing industry in America. From 2000 to 2011, revenue for solar energy has grown 2.7 percent and is predicted to grow to 7.9 by 2016. According to SEIA, the largest solar market will be in the U.S., as it already employs 100,000 workers and has the potential to double that in two years.

So far, the leading states in clean energy are California (not surprisingly), Oregon, Massachusetts, New York and Colorado. The term clean energy actually constitutes as wind, geothermal and solar energy as well as the use of hybrid and electric vehicles. According to Rhone Resch, the CEO for SEIA, the Mid-Atlantic region of the country's installation of solar panels surprisingly beats out that of California. In fact, there is a photovoltiacs demand of 3 gigawatts in the Mid-Atlantic an Northeast. "That's enough solar to power more than half a million homes." states Resch.
