    Solar panels and solar water heaters can provide savings on electric bills and reduce carbon footprints. Solar panels convert the sun's energy into electricity, while solar water heaters use it to heat water. The upfront costs are $20,000-$8,000 but savings of $400 every two months means a return on investment of around 8 years. Benefits also include increased home value and free energy from the sun.
