The very first thing in either case which will be required is a complete solar or wind site assessment performed by a (NABCEP) North American Board of Certified Energy Practitioners site assessor.
Renewable Expenditures Equal Long Term Gains

Many of these systems have an estimated return on investment of up to 7 years and then others are much shorter but the end result is the same. Purchasing and installing these systems will in fact reduce your monthly electric bills which in turn reduces your cost of living.

They are also capable of being able to power these various lighting fixtures at full power to get the lamp through its warm-up period and then throttling back the power to a much lower operational level saving vast amounts of otherwise wasted energy without sacrificing the amount of light each fixture emits throughout the lighting circuit.

This same solution also greatly improves the energy efficiency of the entire electrical system and with power costs continuing to climb with no end in sight there is no time like the present to finally take care of this problem and take a large bite out of your monthly electric costs.

Facts on Power Factor Conditioning – Part II
January 21, 2011 By 2 Comments
As mentioned above, the current passing through the current coil of the Energy-meter installed by the power distributor to monitor power consumption is the algebraic aggregate of the individual resistive, inductive, and capacitive currents flowing in different loads of the household

Since the currents flowing in inductive and capacitive loads are half a cycle out of phase, it is possible to make their sum zero at any particular time by adjusting their magnitudes, consequently reducing the total current magnitude flowing through the Energy-meter (kW-hour meter) installed by the local distributors to monitor energy consumed by a subscriber.

Homes and businesses have many inefficiencies that must first be corrected making them far more energy efficient before any renewable energy system installations are planned.
