I think that going down that path of offering things such as tax credits and other government backed incentive schemes to householders is the only way to go. I mean its a win win situation. Ordinary folks get to do their bit for the environment at a sensible cost and the government reduces its dependancy on fossil fules. Great stuff and thanks for this article.

Governments around the world know that creating more energy efficient homes will not only help the environment with using less heat and light energy but will lower the cost of the fuel the government buys to provide for the country. The world has been wasteful for too long and now the government has decided to clamp down on energy waste to save millions/billions in fuel costs. This not only helps the government but helps the house owner as well .-= chris@finance advice´s last blog ..A Guide To California Mortgage Rates =-.

Thanks for the info. I have been going over the numbers for my home, checking to see how long these upgrades would take to in turn pay for themselves. Things such as the solar panels would take quite some time to brake even on.

I think the tax credits are great if you need to upgrade, but depending on how long you plan to stay in your residence could be the determining factor in choosing one of the upgrades. Trying to get your investment back may be tough if your one of those people that move frequently. .-= Tracy CA Homes´s last blog ..Holidays On The Farm (Lathrop, Ca) =-.
