“It certainly makes a lot of sense in switching from conventional energy to solar energy as your primary source of energy to power up your home”, says Marshall Kanner. In case you are still in the dark about the many benefits of solar energy  then it is time to understand how home solar power generation can do the environment a lot of good, save you from paying high monthly electricity bills and also ensure that you have power even when there is a power outage in your locality.

For those that do know a bit about home solar power generation there is little need to convince them to switch over to using solar power because it (solar power) has a very enviable reputation. Even a tiny fraction of total solar radiation is enough to power up the entire world.

For long, solar power has been used primarily to heat things and it continues to be the main reason for using solar energy. Home solar power generation can be affected in very simple ways; installing skylights as well as windows is the simplest form though this form is considered to be a passive form of home solar power generation.

Mr. Kanner says, “the other form of home solar power generation is known as active solar power and for this type of solar energy it is necessary to use solar panels that are usually installed on the roof of a home and in places that get abundant sunlight”.

What are the advantages of solar power?

The solar energy solution is gaining popularity amongst the alternate energy solutions.

• Green energy solution:

When you look at the solar energy solution, you will realize that it uses absolutely no fuel other than the sun’s light. Moreover, it does not release into the atmosphere anything harmful.

• Cheapest power solution:

First, the energy comes free. Then, the installation cost is a one-time cost. Finally, the investment is recovered within a few years of installation, making the power generated by solar energy absolutely free.

• Convenience of storage:

You cannot store conventional power but you can store solar power for future use. The sun’s energy comes to rescue even in the times of darkness! Storing it also ensures a 24×7 supply of power, thus saving you from any power outage.

• Low on maintenance:

Mr. Kanner professes that the solar energy systems of today are easy to maintain. They do not involve high costs or too much effort, thus letting you reap the benefits of the solution comfortably.

The bottom line is that by availing home solar power generation one stands to save a lot of money, says Mr. Kanner, and at the same time one is assured of protecting the fragile environment on Mother Earth.

In addition, the cost of sunlight is absolutely zero which means that you have nothing to worry on account of costs other than the cost of equipment to get started.

Be Well Informed

More and more people in all parts of the world are becoming enlightened about home solar power generation; however, for the many that are still unaware of this new and alternative energy source it is time to become informed about home solar power and to then take affirmative action once they have understood the many benefits.

Marshall Kanner, the visionary behind Rose Hill Plantation, a new type of community for Western North Carolina – a community that combines the ease of condominium living with the benefits of single family homes. Located in Leicester, North Carolina, just 10 minutes outside of Asheville, Rose Hill Plantation features the perfect blend of country living with city amenities. Mr. Kanner is building each single-family detached home offering luxurious amenities and up-to-the minute technology in a rural community surrounded by rolling hills and mountain views.  

Homeowners are enjoying the community camaraderie and “maintenance-free” living usually associated with condominium ownership, says Mr. Kanner. Each buyer owns their single-family detached home, while the Association owns the land and provides exterior upkeep. All exterior maintenance such as lawn care, roofing, painting, road upkeep and common building maintenance is provided. Maintenance costs are included in each homeowner’s monthly Association Fee, says Marshall Kanner.  

 The 58-acre gated community has been designed with utmost care to ensure the preservation of the lovely rural setting. Forty acres of the development have been set aside as green space for residents to enjoy at their leisure. Community amenities include walking trails, common garden areas, a tennis court, heated pool and spa and the Rose Hill Plantation Club House. Inside the Club House residents will find the fitness center, media room and library area, plus a gathering room for games and get-togethers.

Rose Hill Plantation homeowners may choose from four unique home plans. Each plan features one-level living with an option for a spacious lower level. Homes range in size from 1387 sq.ft. to 1512 sq.ft. under air plus a two-car garage and large decks, with an optional 1,000 sq.ft. on the lower level. Phase I encompasses 20 units, with prices starting in the low $300,000’s.

Homeowners will also enjoy the luxury of “upgrades” that are standard at Rose Hill Plantation, such as hardwood and ceramic tile floors, plush carpet and decorative interior doors. Wood cabinets, granite counter tops, stainless steel sink, hard wood or ceramic tile floors and an upgraded appliance package are included in each kitchen. Master baths feature a whirlpool tub, glass-enclosed shower and cultured marble countertops.

Generous back decks are also standard on each home, allowing homeowners to drink in the pastoral setting. Home sites have been carefully positioned so that each homeowner will enjoy both nearby rolling hills and long-range mountain views.

Rose Hill Plantation’s maintenance-free lifestyle provides homeowners with more leisure time, making this the perfect community for active adults of any age seeking a primary or second home. Rose Hill Plantation has everything you are looking for – a luxurious smaller home with less upkeep, a gated community where people are active and can come together for everything from book clubs to barbecues.

Mr. Kanner says “that while enjoying a rural lifestyle, homeowners at Rose Hill Plantation will also enjoy the benefits of being just 10 minutes from Asheville with its dynamic restaurants, shops, art galleries, entertainment venues and bustling business district. Outdoor enthusiasts will find a variety of Western North Carolina activities just moments away, including: hiking, biking, fishing, canoeing and kayaking, whitewater rafting and horseback riding. Winter sports such as skiing, snowboarding and snow tubing are also nearby.”
