What would happen if you just didn’t send a check to the electric company this month?

You’d probably end up in the dark, right?

Well, don’t write the power company another check before you see what this is all about…

An engineer named David Thompson is showing a growing number of homeowners  how to stop sending checks to the power company…

…while KEEPING the lights on, and it’s completely legal and ethical.

In fact, you’re helping the environment at the same time!

If you’re a homeowner, you know home energy costs are only getting higher… and meanwhile we’re all shelling out $20,000 to have solar panels installed.

So I was pretty excited to stumble on this private website where an engineer with a “do it yourself” streak is practically *giving away* his secrets for cutting your energy bill using just everyday tools and materials you can pick up at the hardware store:

The step by step tutorial videos make everything clear (which is great, if you aren’t the handyman type) and they’re even HD quality so you can see every detail of what he’s doing and copy it.

Most people shell out $150 or more per month for electricity… but you can cut that bill down considerably if you take these simple steps.

David has developed a way to cut your energy bills and become more self sufficient.

The best part is, you can do the same thing (and you don’t have to be an engineer like him). David is going to tell you step by step how to do everything fast, cheap and safely with ordinary tools and some materials you can pick up at your local hardware store.

Check it out right now, and you could cut 70% off your electricity costs over the next few months.

It’s amazing that with just a couple easy “do it yourself” projects you can quickly put together a system to start cutting your energy bill.

The DIY energy projects keep getting better and better and this is the best one I’ve see. It offers multiple solutions to free power.

110-Year Old House Gets an Upgrade & Now Produces Its Own Electricity!

Kelly & Matt’s 110-year old house in Ann Arbor, Michigan is America’s oldest net zero energy house and Michigan’s first of such kind. The house actually produces more energy than it consumes after being retrofitted and renovated. The roof was fitted with solar cells. The walls were fitted with improved insulation. The windows were all changed with insulated glass. The plumbing was converted to low pressure plumbing that requires less water than conventional systems. All this adds up to a net zero energy requirement.

The house usually consumes 10,000 kWh per year, but the solar panel produces 12,500 kWh for a net 2.5 megawatts extra power. This is enough to power an electric car for about 10,000 miles per year.

The total investment cost? $47,130. This yields a return of $104,000 in about 20 years, inclusive of tax credits and feed-in-tariff credits from the electric utility. Not bad for a 110 year old house.
