Listen Here: Try the free DOE Home energy audit program

Sunday, September 29, 2013
The energy show on renewable energies worldwide
27 September 2013.
If you know where you wasting energy at home, you can fix the problem. But for many people, dental floss is always an energy audit as your teeth - you know you should not it but just seem to get. Fortunately, there is a user friendly energy audit program developed itself by the DOE, which as good a job as any professional program and it is free does.

It's called the home energy saver.

Like this, there are programs since the 1970s, originally in FORTRAN on punch cards. The big improvement is in the user experience. With home energy saver everything you have to do is some basic questions about your home, household appliances, heating and cooling and consumption habits answer. The program models of you use, and then makes this retrofit retrofit recommendations, together with the estimated cost and save energy. I've found that their estimates to be pretty much in and large, except when it comes to Sun, wind and heat pumps.

Check out the accuracy of the program do we have 30 audits sample power of old, middle and new houses everywhere in the country. Weatherproof, insulation, new Windows and ventilation improvements are cost effective in cold climates, but are not cost effective in the average or new houses - nor in temperate climates. Unit of upgrades only make sense if your old appliance (except this refrigerator in your garage) dies. Lighting upgrades are always inexpensive (as a replacement for incandescent lamps).

Solar panels on the roof have especially good paybacks regardless home State, anywhere, where high electric or solar incentives. These results are in contrast to the usual efficiency first and solar. The new mantra should be lighting and solar - and shell-upgrades for older buildings in cold climates. This mantra is marked by one of my solar PV customers, who told me: ' why should I replace the walls and window of my house if I get a faster payback, make my own electricity with a 5-kW rooftop solar system? "
World show energy to renewable energy on this week we go through a real world home energy audit. It takes less than 30 minutes. If you get the results, call your solar or wind energy to see whether they "can generate your way to even greater savings" contractors.

About the energy show

We start as energy costs consume more and more of our hard-earned dollars, as a consumer really to make sure. But we need to us to accept $5 / gallon gas prices, $200 / month electricity bill and $500 heating costs. There are literally hundreds of products, tricks, and techniques that we can use to dramatically reduce these costs - very cost effective.
The energy show on renewable energy world is a weekly 20 minutes podcast, which offers to reduce tips and advice, your home and energy consumption. Each week we cover topics that help to lower your electricity bill explain new products and technologies in plain English, and through the hype cut so that you can make intelligent and cost-effective energy decisions.

About your host
Barry Cinnamon is a longtime supporter of renewable energy and a widely recognized solar power experts. In 2001 he founded Akeena solar - she grew to the largest national residential solar installer from the middle of the last decade with more than 10,000 roof customers coast to coast. He cooperates with Westinghouse to build Westinghouse solar in 2010, and sold the company in the year 2012.

His pioneering work to reduce costs on the rooftop solar power systems include Andalay, the first solar panel with built-in racking, earthing and cabling; the first UL listed AC solar panel; and the first fully "plug and play" AC solar panel. His current efforts focus on reducing soft costs for solar power systems, cause the system rates against double from Germany, in the United States.

Although Barry may be known for his outstanding work in the solar industry, he has hands-on experience with a variety of energy-saving technologies. He makes residential energy audits since the days of punch cards, developed one of the first ground source heat pumps in the early 80s and always adhere to the laws of thermodynamics.

Listen here: emergency power supply and sustainable way of living off-grid

Tuesday, August 27, 2013
Hurricanes. Snow storms. Earthquake. Tornadoes. You have all clobbered populated areas in recent years, leading to extended power outages, fuel shortages, also the lack of drinking water. But people were living comfortably in completely off-grid, their own electricity produce, the use of sustainable sources of heat and even recycled water.

Have questions for Barry? Parts of you they can be answered in the comments and in the next episode.
These off-grid systems are and who sneaked into established America. Generators are sold in some supermarkets, wood stoves are popular heating, people learn how makes to recover and to reuse greywater and battery, which fuse are solar power systems through low-cost batteries combined with rising utility prices is rejuvenated. Inevitably, prices for these technologies more affordable will be more expensive as electricity, gas and water.

Our special guest for this week's show is death of DuBois, CEO of Sangha energy. Death company specializes in off-grid living systems including generators, battery backup solar power, grey water recovery systems. Tune in this week energy to renewable energy world show how death and Barry about your options for sustainable electricity, heat and water talk - also in your suburban jungle.

Listen: Electric vehicle economy - can "Recharge" by the Sun?

Thursday, August 08, 2013
In just ten years, hybrids and full electric vehicles (EVs) by quirky cereals have gone transport mobiles to mainstream commuter. A type of electric vehicle offers almost all the major automotive manufacturers and sales are constantly increasing. But are economically sound road EVs of a State-sponsored fad or the future? And rooftop solar is useful as a source of energy for your car?

Have questions for Barry? In the comments to share, and they can be answered in the next episode.
On this week energy renewable energy world show, we explore these issues with our special guest, Pete Levy, founder of IntelliChoice, the automobile inventory software experts. As Pete EV bought, he asked me some basic questions about solar and EVs. After we crunched the numbers became very clear that some slightly cheaper than gas cars, EVs with the economy are still compelling, as gas prices rise and solar power is cheaper. To turn off show this week and to figure out, if one is EV in your near future.
