Renewable Energy Makes Idaho News

We are passionate about the community we live in, as well as the people we serve, and we love our great country! As such we want to see only the best choices made for the future of all. Renewable Energy NW LLC owner Carl Simpson put together a few personal thoughts in a recent letter to the editor and we wanted to be sure to share it with you here:

The story of energy is one of evolution, and American innovation has always been crucial to it. As consumers, businesses and public governments increasingly look to lower-carbon options, I’m glad the U.S. will continue to be at the forefront of new clean energy technologies thanks to smart thinking from Congress.

In the final days of last year, leaders in Washington passed the Energy Act — a major infusion of cash into clean energy innovation (like solar, wind and storage) over the next five years. It came on the tailwinds of other important progress for American clean energy innovation right here in Idaho: $10 million in federal funding to support a partnership between Idaho National Laboratory and Xcel Energy. Together they’ll transform our knowledge of hydrogen and potentially the nuclear energy industry as we know it.

Clean energy is a powerful economic development tool and job creator here in the Gem State as well as nationwide. Beyond that new advancements have made clean energy among the most cost-conscious options for consumers. Senator Crapo and other leaders’ sustained commitment to innovation will continue its trajectory and contribute to a more resilient and affordable U.S. power system.

With a focused approach towards energy efficiency first then renewable energy we can make sound economic decisions for clean energy that make cent$.

Carl Simpson, Star

Winter! Is! COMING!
Fuzzy caterpillars, old bones, and everything in the sky is saying we’re in for another big winter here in Idaho!

First, our Renewable Energy NW team takes a look at your homes current energy costs – or projected ones if you’re still building. From that we make a comprehensive plans based on your energy needs and start putting the pieces together based on that need and your budget. See, we understand no two homes are the same and as such no cut copy solution will work for every home. Thankfully we do a lot more than just measure your roof to see how many panels it will fit – we do solar thermal like few others in the world, but it is only part of our whole home energy solution!

IDAHO! The time to start saving is NOW!
That’s right, right now – with whole home energy solutions from Renewable Energy NW LLC!
Solar thermal itself is one of the most efficient forms of renewable energy at over 94% efficiency; it is just one of the methods we employ to help lower you overall home power load.

Because we look at the big picture of how you use energy in your home, instead of just measuring your roof to see how many solar panels can be crammed into it, we know that your needs can change over time. As such it is wise not to rely on just one system to handle all of the work; so we combine things like long life light bulbs, vibration free attic fans, and even solar thermal cooling to provide year round solutions for your home now and into the future.

What this provides is not only energy savings that you will see right away but also an investment in future power security for years to come! Best of all, should you decide to sell your home down the road you will be happy to know that homes with solar tend to not only sell 20% faster but also for higher value. But don’t go thinking that these solutions are something you can only have if you’re building new – no way! – we can help any home old or new start saving with the power of the sun!

Stop Paying Your Power Bill!

Just imagine if you could! Well, the good news is it’s not just some far fetched idea. Thanks to the modern technology we use in our whole home energy solutions you can start cutting those energy bills right away. You see, Renewable Energy NW LLC provides much more than just solar pv, or even just solar thermal – we take a look at the big picture of your home’s energy expenditures and see where we can reduce costs before we even start measuring out your roof to see how much solar will fit on it.

Here’s a great example!
We received a call yesterday from a customer that we installed a system from over 5 years ago. They had a question about a Solar PV system and charging into old lead batteries. Once the question was answered, I inquired how the solar thermal system was working. His comment was “great”! They had not turned the gas hot water heater on since they moved into the new house over 5 years ago.

Our home energy solutions aren’t just for new construction! While you certainly don’t have to start from the ground up it can be easier to install the systems necessary for optimal savings while the home is being built, but even existing homes can see an amazing savings on energy bills using our recommendations. We’ll begin by assessing your current power bill, look at where it’s costing you the most, and then provide a comprehensive energy plan to help you start saving right away.

Our solar solutions are about more than just heating your home too! While solar thermal is known for it’s super efficient ability to radiantly heat floors and walkways we can also use our systems to provide cooling as well. Best of all you can enjoy these savings the entire time you live in your home and should it come time to relocate you can count on these improvements adding to your overall home value. Give us a call today to schedule your free solar site visit!

At Renewable Energy NW LLC the services we provide go beyond just solar power for your home, even beyond just solar thermal hot water! When you make the decision to switch to renewable energy with us you set your path for a brighter future – not just for you, but for those who come after you as well.

The solutions we provide start with saving you money today, but you will get all the enjoyment of readily available hot water and energy powered by the sun while you own your home, and when it comes time to sell or to pass that home along. You will be pleasantly pleased to find that the improvements you’ve built into it with us have not only added tremendous value to your resale price, but will add value to the home for years to come for the next owner too.

We’re excited to be able to provide whole home energy solutions to reduce your power bills and increase your enjoyment of your home! While many solar companies are only concerned with how many panels will fit on your roof we instead begin by looking at all the ways we can cut your home energy load before adding any solar. In many cases that may be adding an attic fan, or even just changing the lights you are using, as part of a comprehensive plan to get your energy bills down.

Don’t let worries about big install costs scare you away! Solar is more affordable than ever and we always start with how much technology is needed to fulfill your needs, not a bottom line.
