Building an energy efficient house will not only help you in conserving energy but also aid you in slashing your utility bills. With the growing awareness about global warming, most architects and home owners are taking conscious steps to equip their homes with energy efficient features. One of the easiest ways to make your home eco friendly is by installing photovoltaic solar panels on your roof or terrace. The power generated by this solar grid will help you reduce your carbon footprint while using electronic appliances.

You can also build a geodesic dome or a monolithic dome to save energy. To add to it, these constructions are extremely durable and can survive hurricanes, tornados as well as earthquakes and are effective in keeping out insects. You can also opt for modular homes that are energy-efficient or build smaller homes that do not have high energy consumption. Homes build from earth are also extremely eco-friendly.
