Solar panels
Notes:
- Adding solar panels to your home allows you to capture the energy of the sun and put it to good use. Solar panels will run you about $12,500 to install. However, over the course of the lifetime of the panels, you could save yourself more than $40,000 on your energy bills.
- Of course, if you don’t have the funds to get panels installed yourself, you can also work with solar companies where they pay you to let them use the excess energy gathered from the panels.
- By the time you pay off the panels themselves, you’ll have earned back a great deal of savings and can continue to get those payments long after you officially own the panels themselves.

Dig a well
Notes:
- If you use a lot of city water, then chances are you know how spendy water use can be. This is particularly true in the summer months when things heat up.
- According to some estimates, you can save yourself up to $500 a year by digging a well. Over the long haul, adding a well and a septic system can save you up to $10,000.
- The same can be said of residential water well pumps. Not only that, but getting your own water well can help make you more independent from government water systems for emergency situations.
- However, you’ll want to make sure that the zoning laws in your area allow for your own residential water pump before you start getting one installed.

Change the lights
Notes:
- The type of lightbulb you use can make a big difference in the amount you spend on energy costs. By switching out your traditional bulbs for LED lights, you can save yourself up to $400 a year.
- You’ll also save yourself money in replacement costs. LED bulbs last longer, provide better light, and while it’s a small change it can be well worth the effort, especially when coupled with other energy saving solutions.
