| Passive Solar Energy is using the suns energy without conversion into electricity. There are a great many concepts that still allow you to use the suns energy without investment into photovoltaic cells. |
| One idea: Use this for heating your water. This will save a lot of money off your electric bill by allowing solar energy to heat your water before it is stored in the water tank. |
| Another idea: Heating your pool, if you have one. Or any other body of water you have next to your home. This can be recirculated through your attic and take the heat away from your while heating your pool. |
| Idea #3: Using a Zero Energy Design or "green home" is what most people think about when it comes to passive solar energy. Such as, having most of your windows facing south, using material that will store the suns energy for a long time and give off that energy through out the night. |
