ENERGY EFFICIENCY

Today using energy efficiently has become more relevent as the cost of energy is rising day by day and getting out of reach of common man. We have tried to identify and put down some simple steps which can help in reducing
power consumption.

Energy

For billions of year since begining of universe and later formation of our solar system the sun (Stars) has been the prime source of energy. In other words there are no other source of energy which is inexhaustible and available free.

Solar energy is the radiant light and heat from the Sun that has been harnessed by humans since ancient times using a range of ever-evolving technologies. Solar radiation along with secondary solar resources such as wind and wave power, hydroelectricity and biomass account for most of the available renewable energy on Earth. Only a minuscule fraction of the available solar energy is used.

What ever fuel we are using in todays developed world is only a by products of solar energy, be it coal, oil, hydro or any other from or energy. Since it is only the sun which has provided the initial energy and power in the process of transformation and storage or energy in different forms. Can you imagine a day without sun?

Today we are depending on other sources of energy like oil, coal, gas simply because we humans have always been looking for a easy way of life. As a result of thoughtless use of these polluting energy sources which emit harmful green house gases we have now endangered the existance of life on Earth. And if we do not take proper measures now it may be too late and we would be giving our new generation the worst place in the universe.

Time has come and we need to change our thinking for betterment of our coming generations. At least we can make our planet a clean place by using Renewable Energy sources.

The Solar Energy intercepted by earth in one day is enough to power whole world for couple of years. But still we do not have any technology which can harvest this huge amount of energy and store it for future use. In fact we even do not need to store this energy if the whole world is interconnected with power transmission lines then half of the world which lies facing the sun in a given time can power rest of the world. This may be possible in future but right now it is next to impossible. May be some day it happens!

Here is what we can do right now to cut down emission of green house gases.

Using Solar Power systems (PV Panels) to generate Electricity.

Solar Water Heaters can be used to get hot water for both domestic and industrial use.

Solar thermal energy can be used for cooking using solar cookers. It can also be used for
power generation.

Proper planning while building construction can ensure maximym day light is available so that
artificial lighting use is minimised.

Selective shading and proper thermal mass utilization can result in well lit space at
comfortable temperature.
