Fighting Power Crisis Using Solar Energy

Power crisis is the worst thing that can happen in any nation. Some countries are already experiencing it and their governments’ efforts may not be enough, especially when their citizens failed to act and cooperate.

But as citizens, we can contribute in energy conservation thus will also keep us from high electricity costs. Especially during summer or hot season, our electric bills normally swell.

Conserving energy starts from home and with simple acts like using CFL bulbs, unplugging appliances when not in use, less use of heater when bathing or washing clothes and using sunlight instead of machine dryer for drying them. Also, the best way to save energy is to utilize solar energy like using portable solar charger.

Crisis in energy is said to be one of the striking effect of global warming. The problem may rooted from non-functional hydroelectric power plants. Such power plants uses gravitational force of falling or flowing water. Hydropower is the most widely used form of renewable energy in many countries since it is relatively low cost. But without enough water, those hydropower plants will fail to function.

If people are not going to act today, tomorrow might be too late to save everything. This is also a call to those with innovative minds to further contribute ways to save the environment and energy.
