In a green smart home and eco friendly house, photo-voltaic solar panels may be used. When using photovoltaic solar panels, and a grid-tied system with back-up batteries, the electrical running costs are reduced by up to 95%.
And when generating more electricity than we need, we may be paid by the national supplier for feeding that excess back into the grid.
Additionally, when the green home and eco friendly house is resold, the initial outlay for green features is fully recouped.
Other ways in which money is saved and profits are increased in a green home are by:
- Using energy-efficient lighting, heating and air-conditioning systems.
- Conserving and managing the use of water, using smart technology.
- Using natural light and air by rethinking the placement of doors, windows, and other openings.
- Using building materials that provide efficient insulation.
- Using sensors to control lighting and air-conditioning.

CEO | Founder @ Live Green Smart
During my mid-adult years I became interested in recycling, and after several failed attempts I gave up.
Many years later with my life-partner we successfully implemented recycling.
We took our lifestyle further when we developed an eco-friendly home.
In my mid-adult years I became vegetarian.
After a cholesterol-induced mild heart attack we changed our eating habits and stopped consuming foods and drinks which are considered to add to cholesterol. At the same time we switched to consuming zero added sugar foods and drinks. We cut our added sugar intake to less than 5%
Shortly afterward, we started practicing various types of fasting and introduced regular, though modest exercising.
Our journey culminated into providing the following services based on our life experiences and the benefits we derived:
* Healthy Eating
* Healthy Fasting
* Healthy Exercising
* Eco Friendly Living
