Solar Energy Usage Increasing

Solar energy is being used for many different purposes as it is one of the most popular forms of alternative energy.  The governement offers grants and tax credits to anyone who uses photovaltaic roof tiles used to store heat from the sun.  This heat can be used to heat home water or converted to electricity.  Any unused energy collected can be sold back to the power companies.  This means that someone can receive a check from the power company for providing energy!  So if you harness the power of alternative energy sources you can both save money and help protect the environment.
