«When it comes to life cycle greenhouse gas emissions, wind and solar energy provide a much better greenhouse gas balance than fossil - based low carbon technologies, because they do not require additional energy for the production and transport of fuels, and the technologies themselves can be produced to a large extend with decarbonized electricity,» states Edgar Hertwich, an industrial ecologist from Yale University who co-authored the study.

And unlike incandescents, which generate a lot of waste heat, LEDs don't get especially hot and use a much higher percentage of electricity for directly generating light.

Certainly, it does have to get local regulatory approval for price hikes, however, a 10 % increase in water rates is much more digestible (and therefore much less protested) than a similar increase in electricity and gas rates.

Cost is probably under $ 250, it avoids arguments over load on the system for the rest of the house, you could plug it into a Kill - a-Watt and measure exactly how much electricity it's using and pay her for that if you want to make sure you've completely covered the costs... and it would leave her with a backup option if / when the main unit does fail.
