Commercial Solar Panel Installations: What Are The benefits?
Solar power is the future of energy, and businesses can benefit from investing in it. At this point we’re all aware that renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind, are significantly more sustainable and environmentally friendly than the more traditionally used fossil fuels. By installing solar panels, a typical business reduces their carbon emissions by 50 tonnes every single year. However, the benefits of investing in solar power don't stop at just helping our planet — it can also help your bottom line.
The Rise in Popularity of Solar Panels
The history of solar panels can be traced back to the 19th century when French physicist Augustin Mouchot demonstrated a solar steam engine. However, it wasn’t until the 1950’s that solar panels began to be used for electricity generation when Bell Labs developed the first silicon solar cell. Since then, solar technology has greatly developed over the years, offering people and companies a clean and renewable source of energy that can help to reduce their carbon footprint.
How to Live More Sustainably
As impressive as our planet is, it can only produce a finite number of specific resources and withstand a certain level of greenhouse emissions to stay healthy. Because of this, society's focus is quickly shifting towards sustainable living, with many individuals adopting lifestyle changes to support this.
