Orange County, California Embraces Solar Energy

August 26th, 2010

What better place would it be to think of our future generations than Orange County, California?  Hundreds of thousands of children flock to the county to visit Disneyland.  They remind us how fragile and precious our planet is and how relentlessly we have to pursue the dream of a power source that is renewable and has no adverse effect on the environment.

That is why Sungate Energy Solutions is so excited about introducing its wide range of solar power products to the citizens of Orange County, California.

Solar power, as is evident from the expression, is derived from the sun, and California has plenty of it.  Of course it also means lots of power consumption in terms of using air-conditioners and refrigerators. Our photovoltaic solar panels and windows insulation solutions can drastically bring down your conventional energy consumption derived from fuel and coal.

Once installed on your rooftop or in the surrounding area the solar panels start using the light present in the atmosphere to produce electricity. You can use this electricity to run almost every gadget and appliance present at your home or at work.  They provide you non-stop electricity at a marginal cost that gradually moves towards zero. You don’t always need bright sun in order to get electricity as the panels basically convert light into energy and that light can be derived from any source, even if the rays of the sun are not directly falling upon the photovoltaic panels.

Does the cost of installing photovoltaic solar panels seem prohibitive?  It is a one-time cost, of course and you can recover it within a few years, depending upon the type of solution you go for.  In order to encourage renewable energy consumption various government and non-government agencies provide financial assistance to those who show interest in switching over to nonpolluting energy sources.  After the one-time investment you simply get your power from the sun instead of the grid. You don’t run a recurring cost no matter what is your energy consumption.  So unlike the electricity that you get from the grid your energy cost does not go up as you use more and more devices that use electricity.

Although savings are a big incentive you can make a significant impact towards creating a healthier living environment and setting an example for your neighborhood.  Even if you can easily afford conventional electricity switching over to solar panels will help you considerably reduce your carbon footprints.  Millions of tons of carbon dioxide and other toxic gases are released into the atmosphere in order to generate electricity that we so casually use. At Sungate Energy Solutions we don’t suggest that you stop using your electronic devices — use them to your heart’s content but run them with power that doesn’t put strain on the environment and doesn’t destroy our ecology.

Northern California is Making Long Strides Towards Solar Energy

August 23rd, 2010

Northern California has a diverse climate but despite that its residents are rapidly adopting solar energy as their primary energy source.  To complement this trend Sungate Energy Solutions provides photovoltaic solar panels to all major locations in this part of California including San Jose, San Mateo, Redwood City, Hayward, the San Francisco Bay Area, Livermore, Novato, Marin County, Foster City, San Carlos, Castro Valley, Sunnyvale and more.  All these locations enjoy ample exposure to sun.

Sungate Energy Solutions can help you go solar in no time.  Do you think it’s another expense?  Hardly.  You just need to incur a one-time installation cost and once you have recovered that money the energy is practically free.

You no longer have to derive your energy from the grid and in fact some households can make money by giving excess energy to the grid instead of taking energy from it and paying for it.  From an energy consumer you become an energy producer. On top of that you will be using a 100% clean production method.

With the help of federal and local agencies Sungate Energy Solutions can provide you rooftop solar panels and other solar energy dependent equipment at considerably reduced rates.  In order to promote cleaner energy among its residents the State of California provides various incentives such as subsidizing installations and providing tax benefits to households and businesses using solar energy instead of conventional energy.

It’s not just solar panels that help you save your energy costs; you can even install solar hot water systems to meet your hot water needs and solar cookers to enable you to cook food without using fuel, electricity, or gas. Sungate also provide windows insulation solutions to optimize your energy consumption while using heating and cooling systems.

Sungate Energy Solutions is proud to say that California in general and Northern California in particular is setting a great example for the rest of the country: the world’s largest solar energy facility is situated in California’s Mojave desert.

We provide solar panels and various other solar energy solutions throughout Northern California including all possible cities and counties.  Our solutions are highly reliable and cost-effective; they will save you from the ever-rising utility costs.  As we have stated multiple times on our website, after you have recovered your installation costs a lot of the electricity you get is pretty much free of charge.

Let Sungate Energy Solutions Help You Beat the Ever Rising Utility Costs

August 17th, 2010

Inflation is pandemic and it manifests in almost all aspects of life including utility costs. Fortunately, when it comes to controlling or beating your rising utility costs things are not as daunting as they seem.  It just takes a few pragmatic decisions and you can reduce your utility bills by as much as 70-80%. Wondering how?

Sungate Energy Solutions brings you rooftop solar panels that can produce you electricity by using light from the sun throughout the year with no additional cost.  Once it is installed and configured the system costs you no money whether you use a single appliance or multiple appliances (provided it can support multiple appliances functioning at the same time).

The problem with your conventional electricity connection is that the cost goes up and down according to the usage. For instance if you watch the TV and use the food processor you are constantly incurring a cost for both the appliances.  If you switch off the TV then you’re not paying the electricity cost of keeping your TV switched on.  So the only way to save money is using less and less things that are powered by electricity.  Although there is nothing wrong in using less appliances (minimalistic lifestyle is fast catching up) it is sort of restraining if you’re constantly paying for the power use.

Sungate Energy Solutions can help you get rid of this problem.  No, it doesn’t advocate power pilferage.  It taps into the gargantuan power of the sun and produces electricity for your home or business establishment and it does that without any fuss.  The photovoltaic solar panels from Sungate Energy Solutions quietly reside on your rooftop, capture whatever light is available from the ambience of the atmosphere  and convert it into electricity.

Contrary to popular misconception you don’t need bright sun for the solar panels to work properly; any light would do.  This is because the photovoltaic cells work on the concept of converting light into electricity and that light doesn’t need to come directly from the sun.  The same concept is applied on those tiny calculators that you may have been using since the mid-80s.  You just need to expose them to some light source and they start working — you don’t even have to switch them off.  In the same manner the solar panels over your rooftop convert every light they get into electricity so that you keep on getting power even in cloudy weather.

So how do these solar panels help you beat the incessantly rising utility costs?  Once you have installed them you will be deriving 70-80% of your electricity from them.  Of course there is an initial installation cost but considering the amount of money you are going to save this is nothing.  If the seemingly prohibitive installation cost holds you back please rest assured: the entire cost can be recovered within a small period of three years and after that all the electricity that you get — at least in the portion being produced by the photovoltaic solar panels over your rooftop — is totally free.  Whether you are running a TV or a food processor or both together you don’t have to worry about incurring extra costs (these appliances referred to here just for example, you can run all the gadgets and appliances that are powered by your conventional electricity connection).

You still get the remaining 30-20% of your power from your conventional source because current technology doesn’t provide 100% reliance, although it will be possible in the very near future. Intrigued? Contact Sungate Energy Solutions today and we’ll provide the you all the necessary information.

Sungate Energy Solutions Show You How Your Roof Does More Than Provide Protection

August 12th, 2010

Sungate Energy Solutions provides cutting-edge roof panels that can generate solar power for your household or business establishment even when the sun is not at its shining best. Wondering what are these roof panels?

As we rapidly move towards a time when we will either run out of fossil fuel or create so much pollution that the planet might incinerate itself, concerned organizations and individuals are constantly working towards creating renewable energy resources that can provide us endless energy without pumping tons of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.  With appropriate technology the sun can become an everlasting energy source because as far as we know it is not going anywhere unless the solar system collapses or our atmosphere becomes so thick and impenetrable that the rays of the sun cannot reach us (a very remote possibility).

The roof panels convert light into energy using photovoltaic cells.  These are tiny cells embedded into the panels that absorb photons of light and release electrons. These electrons are then captured and that in return creates an electric current and that’s how you get electricity from them.  Theoretically this technology is not new; since 1958 scientists have been generating electricity for satellites in space using the same technology.  It is just that so far it was highly complex and expensive to implement the technology on less esoteric applications like water heaters, electric bulbs, food processors and refrigerators.

With the help of rooftop solar panels from Sungate Energy Solutions you can bring down your electricity bill by as much as 70%.  Now this is a significant number over a longer period of time.  So what happens to the remaining 30%?  You get that from your conventional electricity connection.  When solar panels are installed they become your primary electricity providers and when they are unable to meet your demand you get the remaining supply from your electricity company.

Solar panels from Sungate Energy Solutions are totally nonintrusive — that means you can totally forget about them once the engineers from our company have installed them on your rooftop.  They quietly go on producing power for you with occasional maintenance once every 3-4 years.  Some parts may be replaced during the maintenance process but after the initial installation cost the proceeding costs are negligible.

The solar panels can be placed strategically so that they don’t interfere with the external design of your house.  In fact some solar panels completely blend into your rooftop as if they are an integral part of your roof.  You can even get matching colors sometimes. As the technology advances the size of solar panels will keep on decreasing and very soon they will be so small that you won’t even be able to see them from below.  The early adopters will always be at an advantage as the upgrades are much cheaper than installations from scratch.

Some people may complain that the installation cost is higher compared to conventional electricity connection.  It is actually a one-time cost and after a period of 1-3 years this cost completely gets paid up and after that you get your electricity practically free of cost.  It is a pity that to save us from a one-time cost we keep on incurring a lifelong cost. You also get tax benefits when you switch over to a renewable source of energy. Depending upon which state you live in the government will eagerly bear anywhere from 40% to 90% of the cost of your solar panels.

So contact us today and we will help you decide what’s the best combination for your particular requirement.  At Sungate Energy Solutions we not only do business we also strive to educate our prospective customers about how to save power, not just to reduce costs but also to help the environment.

Bill Reduction Through Solar Energy

Sungate Energy Solutions ensures you benefit from more affordable and environmentally friendly energy alternatives.  They do so by offering a wide assortment of solar power systems for domestic energy production. Their services include installing panels in your residence for replacing the gas and electric energy with solar energy. In this way you experience the same type of power generation however you are saved from paying huge electricity and gas bills.

You may be wondering how solar power generation reduces the overall electricity bills? In order to answer that you need to understand the basics of solar power generation. On a domestic scale solar panels with inbuilt inverters are installed in an open space like your roof so that they receive direct sunlight. The energy they thus consume is inverted into AC and then transferred to the utility meter. During this process there is no power loss and all the energy is transferred to the meter. In this way this solar network acts more like the real energy grid but on a smaller scale.

Since the energy produced by the solar panels is fed to the utility grid there is often more energy produced than consumed. The obvious affect of this is on your bills which are reduced significantly, depending on how much of your home you convert to solar power.

The benefits of solar energy alternatives offered by Sungate Energy Solutions multiply over the years and with the reducing cost of installing a solar system in your home, the bottom line is becoming more and more attractive. There is no doubt that solar is set to be the next big energy source on a global scale.

Once the system is in place there is not much effort needed on your part to make sure it works efficiently because they are very low maintenance. Following are the reasons why these systems require low upkeep.

  • Since there is no wiring involved there is no risk of short circuiting. Plus you do not need to check the wiring to make sure it is in good working condition.
  • The solar panels and the associated network normally come with a warranty of use of up to 25 years, although the panels can last up to 40 years. This makes them highly durable and ensures you keep benefitting well into the future.

Everyone is aware of how much more environmentally friendly solar energy systems are. They do not heat up which is typical with electric and gas power generation nor do they release carbon byproducts. This is why environmentalists recommend them as a better energy alternative for a greener and safer world to live in.  The advantages offered by solar energy are limitless which makes it a highly sought after power source of the next generation.

The Extraordinary Benefits of Solar Photovoltaic Technology

August 6th, 2010

Solar photovoltaic, also known as solar PV, converts sunlight into electrical energy.  If you have solar panels installed over your roof they use solar photovoltaic cells made of silicone and semiconductors that catch the sunlight and convert it into usable energy. Even if you use a solar calculator or a mobile phone charger that uses solar energy you are using solar photovoltaic cells. Photovoltaic basically means using light (photo means light) to produce electricity.

Does it sound like a sci-fi or a distant dream?  Not at all.  This technology is currently being used by businesses and residential establishments all over the United States and in many other countries of the world to tap into the massive power of the sun that is not going to exhaust at least for a few billion years.

Sungate Energy Solutions is committed to providing clean energy, especially solar energy, to minimize the usage of fossil fuels that release tons of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere creating a toxic world for our children. Although the environmental reasons are overwhelming it also makes financial sense to switch over to solar photovoltaic technology in order to get your daily dose of power. There is only one-time cost — the cost of installation — and after that the technology quietly produces reliable energy for your household and also for your business with little fluctuations between clear skies and overcast skies.

Besides, once your house switches over to solar photovoltaic-based energy production you rarely need to use energy from conventional sources.  As this technology improves further eventually there will be no use of conventional energy and this means our cities and towns won’t be requiring the overhead cables and intrusive polls that dot our landscape. Just imagine how much space and raw materials can be saved.

The photovoltaic technology can be used to derive power for your day-to-day appliances such as computers, water heaters, food processors, coffee and tea makers, lighting equipments and fans, and many other household utilities.  As mentioned above there is a one-time cost of installation and after that you can forget about higher energy bills.  The solar panels need occasional maintenance but it happens once every three to four years so it amounts to almost nothing.

Since photovoltaic panels derive energy from light they don’t always need direct exposure to sun, although they can produce more energy during brighter days. They require ample amount of light and even if the sun rays are not directly falling upon them they can give you a fair amount of energy. So even if it is a cloudy day but there is lots of light the solar panels installed by Sungate Energy Solutions keep working.

The current technology lets you use both conventional and renewable sources.  This is because right now you cannot meet all your energy demands solely from the photovoltaic technology.  So you have both the connections working simultaneously. The solar energy panels are given a preference but as soon as they are not able to meet your energy demands the extra energy is derived from your conventional source.  Hence there is no danger of being left without power in case not enough solar energy is being generated. Right now the greatest advantage of switching over to solar photovoltaic technology is that it can reduce your energy bills to more than 70%. It also reduces strain on non-renewable energy resources.

So let us make a new, brighter beginning for ourselves, but more importantly for our future generations.  Contact Sungate Energy Solutions now to find out how you can adopt responsible living to create a healthy legacy for your children.

Sungate Energy Solutions: solar hot water lowers your utility bills

July 30th, 2010

Using hot water can be a necessity in many situations no matter how high your utility bills are. You see lots of power is needed to get you hot water and this power is obtained from burning fuel or using resources that are exhausting fast.  More scarcity means a higher demand and this leads to higher prices.  So even if you maintain the current level of hot water consumption every passing month or year you are paying more and more for the same amount of water. Of course the hot water requirement increases as your family expands.  Fortunately there is an easy way around.  You can use solar energy to obtain your daily requirement of hot water.

Sungate Energy Solutions provides cutting-edge solar hot water technologies that can bring down your utility bills significantly. Although the greatest benefit of a typical thermal installation can be derived by a larger family even smaller families can benefit from it. There is just a one-time cost that you incur during installation.  Many families  have experienced that 70% of their hot water comes from  the solar power equipment and the remaining from conventional sources.  In this manner you immediately save 70% of your energy costs as far as your hot water consumption goes.

The installation that gives you solar hot water doesn’t require much upkeep.  Every 3-4 years you need casual inspection and mild servicing.  Other than that it quietly works on its own.

Since we have no control over nature many people are apprehensive about the success of their solar hot water installations.  The solar energy technology is making great progress every passing week; yes it is the hot technology these days.  Even small amounts of sun can be converted into usable energy.  So even if you are  having a bout of cloudy weather you will keep getting your supply of hot water.  And anyway when your equipment cannot give you enough hot water your water is heated with your conventional power connection. In case you wonder you might get scalded on a very bright day this doesn’t happen.  There are some settings that keep the heat level to the desired level.

How does Sungate Energy Solutions help you save power and consequently lower your utility bills?  You must already have a water heater in your house and this water heater uses power according to the current temperature of the water being heated.  The solar hot water equipment raises the temperature of the water before supplying it to your actual water heater so it has to use less energy to raise the temperature of the water.  The water is already significantly hot by the time it reaches your  existing water heater and consequently your  energy consumption is less.

Is it too early to switch over to solar hot water when the technology is still developing?  Well, the technology was developing may be in the 80s or mid-90s; now it is already in an advanced stage and it no longer remains a fad. Very high end solar energy products are available from leading producers like Sungate Energy Solutions that you can use from the word go.  As mentioned above you can already get 70% of your hot water from solar energy.  A couple of years ago the percentage was 25-30%.

Once you decide to adopt solar water heating , the engineers from Sungate Energy Solutions conduct a survey of your house and present to you the most economical and efficient water heating solution. They perfectly realize that every family and household has unique requirements and expectations , so they provide a solution accordingly. When you are partnering with Sungate Energy Solutions you purchase only what you need.

Switching over to solar hot water not only saves money ; it also helps you reduce your carbon footprint.  Even if you can easily afford higher energy bills why put a strain on your environment?  Millions of tons of fuel is burned to produce energy used by all of us.  If we use less conventional energy , it means less fuel will be burned . Hopefully the world will reach a stage when they will no longer have to burn fossil fuels to get power for homes, businesses and transport.  That will be an ideal world as far as our environment goes.

Sungate Energy Solutions – The Importance of Solar Panels for Your Home

July 21st, 2010

Since the ancient times humans have worshipped the sun, feared it, admired it, woven tales around it, and recognized its near infinite power as far as the earth goes. It’s only now we’ve been able to harness a tiny fraction of its power — a power popularly known as solar energy or solar power.

Are you looking for a viable energy solution for you home? We highly recommend solar panels and other solar energy products by Sungate Energy Solution: a clean energy company bringing cutting-edge clean energy solutions to the residents of California.

Why solar power?

The two overwhelming reasons are environmental and economical. We’re on the brink of an ecological disaster due to our constant usage of fossil fuels. From generating domestic and industrial power to running automobiles, trains and aeroplanes, we pump into the atmosphere millions of tons of greenhouse gases everyday by burning fossil fuels. We are producing more carbon than the jungles and oceans can absorb. The results are rising temperatures and ominously unpredictable weather patterns. And we are not even talking about the recent BP oil spill — one of the greatest ecological disasters in the US history. And we’re also not even talking about similar ecological disasters happening in various African countries almost on a weekly basis.

So why leave a totally messed up environmental legacy for your children and grandchildren when you can totally avoid this?

Installing photovoltaic solar panels — preferably by Sungate Energy Solutions if you happen to be in Northern California — at home is the most energy efficient solution you can go for. They produce zero pollution and they are totally non-intrusive. You can place them somewhere they can get lots of exposure to sun, preferably on your roof. Once they are operational, you can immediately reduce your conventional energy consumption.

Does a solar panel installation immediately eliminate the need for conventional energy sources like electricity and gas? Unfortunately, not right now, but fortunately, clean energy companies like Sungate Energy Solutions are taking great strides towards creating totally fossil-fuel-free communities. Nonetheless, you can easily reduce your conventional power consumption by up to 30 to 40% and even more. In many households, for instance, water heating is done through solar energy and they are even running multiple electrical appliances.

The initial cost may deter you, but think of the long-term saving, both in terms of money and reducing your carbon foot print. Once installed, solar panels go on producing energy without incurring you recurring cost. You’ll need to get them serviced once in a while but that doesn’t amount to much.

When you go for solar energy you also set a great example for your children and people you know. The energy of the sun is inexhaustible — we are never, ever going to run out of it. With encouraging response from you and other similar-minded people who worry about the future of the planet there will soon come a time when all our energy requirements will be fulfilled by cleaner energy sources like solar power. A great advantage of being in California is that you get abundant supply of the sun. Want to be a pioneer? Contact Sungate Energy Solutions today: your children will thank you for that.
