for green energy somehow seems like too high of a cost for little gain. This is a continuing issue with the green energy movement: how do you get consumers to pay a premium for green energy? APS is facing this problem‚ and our solution is eGreen‚ a campaign to tie APS to green energy and motivate customers to ¡§go green.¡¨ Using green energy sources stops millions of tons of CO2 emissions from entering the atmosphere each year. Basing on existing APS Green Choice renewable energy plan‚ eGreen creates

It can begin simply by turning off a light switch as someone leaves a room or unplugging a device when not in use. From these small acts‚ the beginning seeds of energy conservation can be sown. Energy conservation has become one of the most hotly debated subjects in the world. Old power plants are struggling to keep up‚ sometimes causing power shortages or “brown outs”‚ and new power plants are being built‚ but most of the new plants still use the same technology as their predecessors. Some

Solar Energy The Sun is a star and without it there would be no life on earth. This is why the Sun is called the ultimate source of energy. The Sun’s energy is produced by a process called nuclear fusion. Every second‚ the Sun emits vast amounts of energy‚ much of which is light‚ and this solar radiation can be converted into electricity. Plants and trees are pretty good at collecting this energy. With the help of green chlorophyll‚ they use light energy to make food – they’re our solar powered
