There are two energy crisis affecting you right now.
The first crisis is one that’s happening globally. With third world countries that have massive populations purchasing appliances like air conditioners and refrigerators, total energy consumption is set to far outpace what current energy infrastructure is built to accommodate.
The second crisis is happening in your wallet. Given the energy supply and demand issues that are transpiring, rates are going up and your net-worth is going down.
How can you help to fight both of those negative trends? By buying awesome energy saving products.
Below, we share with you a few products that we think you should prioritize.
Solar Panels
There’s pretty much no better way to save energy than to install solar panels.
Many homes all over the country have already made the leap to solar and have paid off their panel’s initial investment with their energy savings. We recommend that you find a reputable solar panel company and do the same thing.
If you live under an HOA, make sure solar panels are okay to install before buying.
Phillips Hue Bulbs
Phillips Hue bulbs have completely changed the landscape of lighting. Not only are they 100% energy efficient but they also work with virtual assistants like Google Home and can change shades and colors (depending on the kind of bulb you purchase).
We think that you should splurge and buy Phillip’s premium “color-changing” bulbs to take full advantage of all of this energy saving product’s features.
TrickleStar Power Strips
We don’t see TrickleStar products on too many lists outlining energy saving products. We have to believe that’s because a lot of people haven’t heard of TrickleStar yet and that’s a shame because this company is awesome at cutting down electric bills.
TrickleStar strips don’t supply phantom energy to your electronics when you’re not using them which could save you hundreds of dollars every year.

Nest Smart Thermostat
If you’re like most people, one of the biggest power offenders in your home is your HVAC system. Despite how much it costs to heat and cool your house, you still foot the steep bill because let’s face it, who wants to live in a home that’s way too hot or way too cold?
The good news here is that with Nest, you can have the best of both worlds.
Nest makes the way you heat and cool your house more efficient and effectively pays for itself in just a couple of billing cycles.
Also, Nest works with most smart home products which means that you can adjust your thermostat from anywhere in the world.
