Energy Efficient Products

Welcome to BuyEnergyEfficient.com! As winter approaches, the colder weather has people spending more time indoors using extra electricity for heating and entertainment purposes. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, the average American family will spend $1,300 a year on energy bills and a lot of that energy is being wasted.

We have come to rely on our homes as being energy-guzzlers. Heat, air-conditioning, ventilation and appliances have become the standard of comfort. Unfortunately, all of these commonly operate very inefficiently and are harmful to the environment.

BuyEnergyEfficient.org is dedicated to doing what we can to reduce that waste. This holiday season, consider the benefits that occur when you buy energy efficient products. Energy efficient choices show friends and family that you care by saving them money on utility bills every month. These investments also show that you care about the environment.

Of course, saving energy is in all of our best interests. We can smile about lower gas and electricity costs, but the well-being of the planet actually relies on conserving energy. Over the past century, we have seen greenhouse gases contribute to diminished ice caps, increased average temperature, and rising sea levels. Although renewable energy sources are catching on, most households rely on power plants which process fossil fuels such as coal to meet their energy needs.

These plants release large amounts of carbon dioxide, the most prominent greenhouse gas.

When released, carbon dioxide (or CO2) becomes trapped in our atmosphere, absorbing excessive infrared rays from the sun instead of letting them pass. This has the effect of warming the air. Because of their large CO2 emissions, fossil fuel power plants are a major contributor to global warming.

As a society, most agree that it is better to move toward renewable energy options. The rising cost of fossil fuels alone is a deterrent, not to mention the current global/political consequences involved with relying on them.

One renewable energy option which is becoming increasingly popular is solar power. This is one of the safest, cleanest, most reliable energy sources available. In addition to that, it saves significant amounts of money in the long run. However, many people do not feel that they can afford the initial investment required for solar energy equipment. Others simply prefer the convenience and reliability of their regular power supply.

Still, even the government has recognized the need to curb our energy consumption. The U.S. Department of Energy is constantly providing sources for renewable energy as well as energy efficiency tips. Some examples of the latter include: Buying a programmable thermostat which automatically adjusts to the temperature of your home, avoiding incandescent lighting and installing energy-efficient lighting, also insulating or repairing your ducts. These may seem very simple, but anything that reduces our dependency on carbon-generating power is a step in the right direction.

To aid people who are trying to make more energy efficient choices, the Environmental Protection Agency will give the Energy Star label to products which it has deemed environmentally conscious. These products do not use large amounts of electricity, nor do they produce harmful greenhouse gasses. Numerous energy efficient appliances have earned this label, from battery chargers to computer systems. Simply search for the logo featuring a star underneath an arch and you’ll be on your way to energy efficiency.
