When you’re outside at night, camping, or the electricity has gone out, one of the most valuable tools at hand—a flashlight. The invention of the flashlight made doing anything in the dark easier and much more accessible. Now, solar powered flashlights maintain the functions of regular flashlights, but are [...]
Most of us are looking for ways to save money and reduce our carbon footprint. Using energy-efficient appliances vs. regular appliances can help you achieve that goal. By using Energy Star Certified appliances, you can ensure that you are getting an energy-efficient fridge, energy-efficient dryer, energy-efficient water heater, and [...]
Fossil fuels supply about 80% of the world’s energy. They provide us with electricity, gas, and transportation. Even though these are vital components of our lives, fossil fuels emit carbon dioxide and greenhouse gases that contribute to global warming and climate change. Not to mention, these toxic chemicals are [...]
Did you know that geothermal energy is considered one of the most sustainable types of energy? As fossil fuels make up at least 80% of our energy consumption, geothermal energy alleviates the number of toxins that circulate in our atmosphere and enter into our bodies. Check out these interesting [...]
In order to achieve a better tomorrow, we all need to start making sustainable choices today. One consideration is a conversion to solar power, but this decision can be mind-boggling. “What types of solar panels will be best for me? Should I use monocrystalline solar panels or polycrystalline panels? [...]
We drink it, swim in it, and need it to sustain life, but did you know that water accounts for 16.6% of the world’s total electricity production? There are thousands upon thousands of dams in the world, but only a few of them produce hydroelectric energy to power our [...]
For decades, solar energy has been at the forefront of the discussion when it comes to renewable and clean energy. Americans across the nation have been incorporating more and more solar energy into their lives due to increasingly competitive market prices, as well as solar grants. However, there are [...]
Using wind energy is more affordable and widespread than in the past. Wind turbines generate electricity using offshore wind turbines on oceans and lakes, making it easier to access. At Kiwi Energy, we match your electricity with Renewable Energy Certificates — meaning you can support wind energy production, even [...]
Renewable energy is energy that’s derived from natural sources that we are unlikely to run out of. These replenishable power sources include wind, moving water, heat from the earth, sunlight, ocean waves, and even organic waste. While renewable energy is often misconstrued as a new technology, humans have been [...]
Fresh thinking in electricity and gas is certainly relevant to today’s environmentally conscious society. Incorporating natural production can mitigate costs and provide ways to sustain resources. With the rise of renewable energy, tidal power has proven its potential in being a renewable energy source for our future communities. As [...]
