Renewable energy reduces our emissions Emissions that cause Climate Change Emissions that endanger our children

The use of Solar energy can be quite nice to look at. You can see here Solar electric cells + Solar hot water heating panels.

These are our sun-tracking solar panels PV. Trackers are used to minimize the angle of incidence between the incoming light and a photo-voltaic panel, increasing the amount of energy harvested by solar panels by 23%. We bought our panels at Affordable Solar Neil provided great service and a good price.

There are many different ways to use free energy from the sun! Ask us what price you should pay for your solar energy project! At our Nature Preserve in the Texas Hill County we use the power of the sun: A) to produce electricity with our windmill B) to produce electricity with Photovoltaics C) to warm up our water with the sun

Sunlight is Earth's primary source of energy. The solar constant is the amount of power that the Sun deposits per unit area that is directly exposed to sunlight. The solar constant is ~1,370 watts per square meter or ~1273 watts per 10 square feet. Many names are used for equipment that is harvesting the sun: Solar panels = Photo-voltaic panels PV Commonly used: Single Crystal Solar Modules - Polycrystalline Solar Modules Amorphous Thin-Film Solar Modules Single Crystal Solar Modules are the most efficient photovoltaic cells, mostly use in homes to produce electricity. Most of them have a guarantee of 25 years, so their life span is really good. Polycrystalline Solar Modules are less expensive, but they are less efficient. Higher heat brings efficiency down. You see Polycrystalline Solar modules often in or with small appliances. The newly offered amorphous Thin-film Solar modules can be used in a very flexible way, but produce the lowest amount of energy per square yard. At your home you can have a solar system that heats your water Solar hot water panels also called solar thermal panels that produces electricity = photovoltaic and a solar system that uses sunshine to better the climate in your house. All these describe the use of renewable energy. Energy that isn't producing air and water pollution! Energy we can use without burning fossil fuels. And there is financial help through federal tax credits covering about 30% of the cost. So you see, YOU can use the sun to save money and to help Nature!! Bear Springs Blossom Nature Conservation is using Solar energy in different ways. YOU can do that too! We give information on all RENEWABLE ENERGY sources.

We need your support! The more members we have the better we can protect you! Join now! Give us the power to save Earth for the next generation! We show and explain solar panels = photovoltaic **CLICK HERE** to find out why nature conservation is the only solution to our problem with climate change and global warming - Keep Earth Beautiful Live in Harmony with Nature Earth population is growing, more people produce more CO2 so more global warming + climate change will endanger our future! Solution: Solar Energy = clean energy Bear Springs Blossom Nature Preserve works with an electricity producing Windmill

Nature will survive without Humans BUT Humans cannot survive without Nature
