Energy Efficiency

Unlike Escher’s Water Wheel pictured above, which shows perpetual energy, no machine is 100% efficient.

No machine exists that is 100% efficient; if it did we would have a perpetual motion machine and be defying the laws of thermodynamics.  

We will never be able to create a machine as efficient as Escher’s Water Wheel, but we can use the technology available to us to use energy efficiently.

Using energy efficiently means that you can generate more savings at home or at business by not paying for as much wasted energy.  

You will also reduce the other costs of gas and electricity which are often overlooked. Gas and electricity are the culprits producing air pollutants including sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, particulates and heavy metals which impact human health, flora and fauna, building materials, and social assets like recreation and visibility.   Greenhouse gases including carbon dioxide, methane, and chlorofluorocarbons are suspected of contributing to global climate change and pose potential impacts on agriculture and human health. Water use and water quality are affected by electricity production, principally through thermal pollution or hydroelectric projects that affect aquatic populations.   Land use is also affected by power plant sites and by waste disposal including solid, liquid and nuclear wastes.

This website will demonstrate some simple ways you can use energy efficiently in your home, business and through renewable energies.
