Continuous efforts or researchers are resulting into amazing solutions to help save the planet Earth. General Electric has lately unveiled a new eco-friendly project that gives the homeowners assurance of cutting the annual energy consumption to zero by 2015. Through solar panels or wind turbines, the net-zero energy homes will combine on-site power generation with energy efficient appliances and on-site storage thereby providing detailed energy data and asking the users to control the appliances with Home Energy Manager. Anticipated to cost between $200 and $250, this eco-friendly manager will lower down your power bills to zero. Probably the appliances and energy display will be available by 2010. A net-zero energy home would cost about 10 percent more by 2015. That’s a fair deal, isn’t it?
