Planet Green will help homeowners Greenovate

Posted by Pinky Bean on June 3, 2008 1:02 PM Filed Under: Home, Video

Last month The Learning Channel debuted an episode of "Greenovate," a new program that will be part of Planet Green's regular line-up when the new "eco-tainment" channel launches tomorrow evening. Greenovate will follow a documentary style with a focus homeowners - or as they're known on the show, "greenovators" - who embark on a mission to incorporate green design into their homes.

The episode previewed on TLC was offered as a teaser for the new channel and demonstrated the benefits of converting to solar energy for household use. Clear Skies Solar was able to implement a residential solar system into a home in less than four hours and upgraded the service panel to accommodate the new system.

Ezra Green, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of Clear Skies Solar (CSS) is featured in the episode as a solar energy expert explaining to viewers, while perched atop the homeowner’s roof, the many financial and environmental benefits of solar power, including the homeowner’s anticipated annual savings of nearly 40% on energy bills.

“CSS’s participation in this project was truly exhilarating,” said Green. “It was a privilege to work with such a highly-revered company as Discovery Corp. to produce this forward-thinking show for such a unique and pioneering channel as Planet Green. We’re proud to be a part of this network in its infancy and hope all the viewers enjoy this episode as much as we enjoyed participating in it.”

“In addition to supporting the movement among homeowners transitioning from traditional energy to solar energy, our intention with Greenovate was to also educate Americans on the infinite benefits of this energy option,” added Green.

Watch a preview for Greenovate below and be sure to watch Planet Green this Saturday, June 7 to see the episode in its entirety.

Hello. I am curious on how to combat roof destruction in Puerto Rico. My brother has a flattop roof that has to be patched up every 1-3yrs. Is there a way to combat this to at least 5-8yrs in a green manner. i want to help him with the inside of the house but don't like to drop money on the inside if the roof is going to continue to leak.
Thank you in advance for your time and effort. Vivian
