#1 in Energy Efficiency Technology for Homes and Buildings
Posted 05/02/2011 by Siti Crook
The redevelopment and launch of this website on energy efficient homes and buildings, represents the culmination of six- years work. It was June 10, 2008 when I discovered just how vulnerable websites can be to mischievous internet hackers. It took just a few days for hackers to destroy what had taken me the previous three years to build.
I had two primary goals for revising this website. The first goal is that you leave thinking your time was well spent and the second is that you want to return. All too often, one’s internet search results produce the same information with slightly different formatting and visuals.
Back in 2005/2006 we used the tag line, “Save Energy, Save Money”. You’d be hard pressed to find a website these days that doesn’t say “save energy, save money”. As far as I can tell– “If you’ve seen one you’ve seen them all.”
If you are searching for knowledge about energy efficient technology, it requires more than a catchy tag line and fancy visuals. It requires that the people providing you with information for free or for a fee, at minimum, understand how the laws of nature, such as air flow and heat transfer affect a building’s heat gain and heat loss performance.
From time to time throughout this website you will find pass-code protected text. Pass-codes are in place for your protection and for ours. A little bit of knowledge can be dangerous especially when it comes to energy efficiency in buildings.
To truly save energy or prevent a building from wasting energy it won’t be achieved using an ala carte approach, or a “one size fits all” process. Using

I do not believe I have read anything like this before. So good to find somebody with some original thoughts on this topic. Thanks for starting this up. This blog is some thing that is required on the web, somebody having a small originality. B

Thank you so much for your feedback. Our intention is to provide “original thoughts” instead of a “one size fits all” approach to energy efficiency. We seem to have a never ending reservoir of ideas and information to share. Glad our efforts aren’t in vain.

Hey, sweet post, but I was just wondering what the plugin you use for your sidebar is? I have a blog myself, and I’d REALLY like to include it onto my own site. Cheers!

It is nice to come across something worth looking at. Seems like everyone is starting a blog and tossing up whatever pops into their mind. Most of the time it does not make good sense. I am happy to see that is not the case with this one.

Good day, I cant believe a number of of the web sites I have been taken to from stumblupon. I was trying to pass a couple of dull 60 minutes away, when stumbleupon brought me here. What a extraordinary page you possess I’m so delighted to have discovered it I have just passed the previous 20 mins running through several of your articles and reviews, and have also bookmarked some of them. I will definitetly be back to learn a tiny bit more when i have alittle more time.
