3 Save Money Through Energy and Resource Conservation & Renewable Energy by Larry D. Barr, K5WLF Rebel Wolf Energy Systems

4 Energy and Resources Defined Electricity Natural Gas/Propane Water Wastewater Household Trash Gasoline/Diesel

5 Electricity Reduce Usage Use Less Of It Turn off lights when you leave the room Turn off devices you re not using Don t heat or cool to extremes More insulation Water heater on timer & in blanket Use It More Efficiently Eliminate PHANTOM LOADS

6 Electricity Use It More Efficiently Compact Fluorescent Lamps CFLs Task Lighting vs. Area Lighting Efficient Appliances Microwave Toaster Oven CrockPot Electric Blanket Solar Clothes Dryer Lose Power Hog Stereos, TVs & Computers Keep thinkin there s more stuff at your house Eliminate PHANTOM LOADS

7 Electricity Eliminate PHANTOM LOADS!! What is a PHANTOM LOAD?? Something that draws power when you ve turned it off or that s on when not needed Remote Controlled/Instant-on TVs and Stereos Clocks in DVD players, VCRs, microwaves, etc. Night lights in daytime Plug-in air fresheners (a dubious invention) Computer peripherals left on when computer off Keep thinkin there s more stuff at your house

10 Measuring Devices

11 Measuring Devices

12 Natural Gas/Propane Reduce Use Don t overheat the house Turn water heater temp down Get tankless water heater Don t preheat oven (works for electric) Use toaster oven instead NO LEAKS! it s safer that way, too Pool or Hot Tub heaters?? Your call.

13 Water No drips, no leaks, no waste Fix leaky faucets Use low-flow shower heads Turn off shower while you soap & scrub Take short(er) showers Use aerators on sinks Turn off faucet while brushing teeth Don t overwater the lawn, etc. Replace toilet with low-volume flush unit 1.6 gpf vs. up to 7 gpf Makes a big difference in water usage

14 Wastewater By-product of resource use You get charged for disposing of it Use less H2O, make less wastewater City sets water usage in winter In rural area, graywater to ground Use biodegradable detergents, etc May not be legal in all areas Minimize resources needed to dispose of it

15 Household Trash Be careful what/how you buy Buy in bulk it makes less trash Look for recyclable packaging Get Euro canvas shopping bags Eliminates taking plastic bags home Makes folks look at you funny If you burn trash be careful What you burn How you burn it

16 Gasoline & Diesel Keep engines tuned Clean air and fuel filters Moderate Driving Habits No jackrabbit starts Anticipate stops Leave earlier and drive a bit slower Don t idle the car to warm it up Block heater on timer for cold WX

17 Renewable Energy Three Major Sources Photovoltaic (PV) Solar Electric Wind Powered Electric Hydroelectric

18 Photovoltaic

19 Solar Powered Ham Station

20 Photovoltaic

21 Photovoltaic No Moving Parts (generally) Minimal Maintenance Low (or no) output in cloudy WX (?) Subject to hail damage (what isn t?) DC output Requires a battery bank for storage Requires inverter for AC loads Most have 20 year warranty

22 Wind Generators

23 Wind Generators Lots of moving parts Preventative maintenance required Won t work in wind extremes Subject to weather damage DC output Requires battery bank for storage Requires inverter for AC loads

24 Micro-Hydroelectric

25 Micro-Hydroelectric Fairly simple system Minimal maintenance required Works 24/7 Not subject to much WX damage AC or DC output DC most common AC requires a governor system DC requires batteries and inverter Very long-lived systems

26 Biofuels Biodiesel Used Fry Oil Ethanol Booze (fermentation) Cellulosic (enzymes) Butanol Methane Thermal Depolymerization

27 You Get To Choose!

28 Phantom Load Example

29 Points to Ponder... Conservation of energy Conservation of resources Efficiency of appliances Driving habits / choice of vehicle Home insulation, ventilation, etc. Heating & Cooling methods Buying habits Overall footprint on Planet Earth
