Your Questions About Solar Panels For Your Home Are They Worth It

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Paul asks…

Would you change the way you heat your home?

Wind turbines and solar panels produce electricity. This is directed to those of you who do not currently heat your homes with electricity. My questions are:

1. Would you voluntarily change the way you heat your home now to an electrical home heating system powered by solar and/or wind?

2. What would you expect the cost difference to be if you did?

Henry Dover answers:

“Would you voluntarily change the way you heat your home now to an electrical home heating system powered by solar and/or wind?

If I lived where Kano lives and was currently hooked up to the grid, I probably would [1]
If I lived in Ottawa proper and was currently hooked up to the grid, I probably would not [2].
If I were to build a new home, out of town, in the South of Canada, I would think of using wood for heating [3]

Your biggest cost is not the solar panels, they are relatively cheap (1 dollar per watt [3]) and last about 40 years, your biggest cost would be the battery backup since they need to be replaced every 5 – 10 years.

For what it is worth, I am investigating the possibilities and potential problems with solar/wind systems because I am seriously considering going off grid and I am not much further South then you are.

Richard asks…

Do you think it is a good idea to have an environmentally friendly town?

They‘ll be no cars or buses in the town. they‘ll be trams and trains though. buildings will be made out of wood and ‘clean’ products. it will be compulsory to recycle. lights will turn off automaticaly if there’s noone in the room. each property will use rain water as their supply but use mains if there hasn’t been any rain. each property will have solar panels and HEP and wind turbines fitted. The city will have independant electricity from clean sources incase you use more than your house can provide worth of electricity. they‘ll be no gas. plenty of trees and parks. houses and flats will stay at 2 levels only. offices and shops can go up to 4. you’ll be given a county card for paying electricity, water, telecom, and council tax. this’ll also be your key to your home. you need to insert your card into a reader inorder to use electricity. windows will be 3x glazed.
