Green Energy Projects That You Can Do To Save Money

By doing simple green energy projects at home you will be able to save yourself money as well as the environment. Of course one of the most obvious project you can do is switch the source of your energy to a renewable electricity source such as water, wind, or solar power. A project such as adding solar panels to your home can be costly at first, but more than pays for itself with benefits.

There are smaller simpler steps that you can take as well to help save energy costs in your home. Just by turning down your thermostat one degree you will be able to cut your energy bill by 4%. Once you have powered up your mobile device unplug the charger. Most chargers use electricity even when they are not charging. The same thing goes for appliances. An appliance like a TV can use up to 85% of power it will use while running when left on standby.
