Negawatt Box Is Potentially the Best Source of Cheap, Clean, Renewable Energy

PerpetualGreen has introduced a “negawatt box” that reduces energy consumption that saves money on power bills while producing energy efficiency certificates (EECs). Reducing energy consumption is the most efficient alternative energy source available to consumers. With no fuel being burned and no capital being expended for power not used. A negawatt is much cheaper and cleaner to produce than a megawatt. Considering that conserved energy (energy that didn’t have to be produced because demand was lowered) it is no wonder it is the cleanest source of energy.

Negawatts enable us to do more with less and the opportunities are almost boundless. Energy efficiency is the great new energy resource of our future and a vital key to a sustainable environment. It is always less expensive to install energy-efficiency equipment and reduce consumption than to build new power plants. PerpetualGreen is an example of a private company that is currently selling residential and commercial energy-efficient systems and capturing the negawatts produced for sale in the energy credit markets and sharing this recurring revenue with consumers and business owners.

Negawatts are just as useful for consumers and the power companies alike to meet electrical demand as actual megawatts, especially when demand for electricity is high and the supply is low. Production and sales of negawatts is the newest commodity in the renewable energy and carbon offset markets. Many consider an energy credit saved equals an energy credit earned. A renewable energy credit (REC) is equal to 1 megawatt of clean energy produced, and a negawatt is equal to 1 megawatt of energy conserved.
