At the rate power prices are rising, at the moment, it will take no time at all to pay for itself!

• Convenience of storage: You cannot store conventional power but you can store solar power for future use. The sun's energy comes to the rescue even in the times of darkness! Storing it also ensures a 24x7 supply of power, thus saving you from any power outage. (Laugh At Your Neighbours floundering around in the dark!)

• Low on maintenance: The solar energy systems are easy to maintain. They do not involve high costs or too much effort, letting you reap the benefits of the solution comfortably. "Not Much", my favourite kind of effort.

How can solar power be used?
Solar power can be used in our everyday lives by adopting the following solar power systems:

• Solar cooking system: Solar cooking is about cooking without lighting a fire or using electricity! Before you wonder, let me tell you that solar cooking is not about bland food. You can cook in more ways than one - boil, roast, or bake, cook the way you want! The only demand that solar cooking makes of you is being patient; it is a matter of more than a few minutes. However, it is not asking for too much given that you will get tasteful and healthy food without worrying about paying your gas or electricity bill.

• Solar lighting system: You can now light up the entire house, use every electrical appliance without thinking about cutting down bills. There Are No Bills! The solar lighting system lights up your house even on the darkest nights, thanks to the power storage feature it has.

• Solar heating system: You can keep your house cozy and warm using the solar heating system without worrying about costs.

There you are, then. An altogether first class idea, I think so, anyway.
