Utilizing solar energy is a great way to enhance your home to increase it's efficiency over time. Terry Perkins believes that solar power is the way of the future. By converting the sun’s radiated heat into thermal or electrical energy, it can help reduce your utility bills and energy usage. Below is a short description on how solar remodeling works and where it can be applied.

Solar energy can be converted to heat and electric power for building systems use:

• Solar water systems heat water for home and pool use.
• Photo Voltaic panels turn sunlight into electrical power for lighting, equipment, appliances, heating, and cooling.
• Power generation from PV panels can power the home, and any excess power can be sold to the utility grid when it is in excess of the building needs.
• When less power is obtained from the PV panels than the building requires, electrical power can be obtained from the utility grid.  
• Net metering, as this function is called, can actually reduce building usage from the utility grid to zero, creating a “self sufficient” Net Zero Building requiring no energy from the grid.

Homes and buildings can be retrofitted to include solar systems providing an instant reduction of utility bills and energy usage.
