There are many individuals out there wanting to live a green lifestyle, but really do not know how to start. Fortunately, there are many ways to live a sustainable lifestyle by using green energy sources in your home. The following tips will help you get started with green energy.

When you're coming up with a design for your outdoor lighting project, think about getting lamps that are solar powered. Not only are they a reasonable purchase price, but they do not require electricity to run. This will save significant energy. It also means that you avoid having to go outside and wire up outdoor lights.

Changing your heating to solar water can reduce the price to heat your water, hot tub and pool. Traditional gas and electricity are not that efficient, but solar-powered water heaters glean the sun's natural energy to maintain even temperatures. Many of these improvements will cost you a bit up front, but the cost savings and tax deductions will usually more than offset that cost.

Keep your windows shaded when trying to conserve energy. Using curtains or blinds is a good way to block unwanted sunlight. If you do both of these it will cool your house down so you won't have to use as much air conditioning in the summer. You'll save money as well as energy.

Government grants help customers purchase these eco-friendly technologies. If you are interested in getting free money to improve your home you should contact your local government for more information. Who knows, you may qualify for low or no-cost wind or solar installation. Even if you don't qualify for a grant, you can still use these items as a tax deduction.

One way to be environmentally friendly is to only run the dishwasher when it is completely full. Avoid running the dishwasher when there isn't a full load to run. Dishwashers can usually hold many dishes. Properly place your dishes in it so you can fit as many as possible.

When using a dishwasher to do the dishes, don't let it run unless it's all the way full. An equal amount of water and energy is used, whether it is full or not. Make sure you are using the energy saving settings on your dishwasher that will air-dry your dishes.

As stated above, green energy is a political topic that is getting more and more important since cheap oil is being phased out. With the proper knowledge, green energy can easily be incorporated into your life. Use the tips presented here, and you'll soon be saving money and the planet at the same time.
