At the heart of Simpler Living LLC is the philosophy of sustainability. The modern age has seen a surge in energy consumption, with it skyrocketing 13-fold in the last 50 years, as per statistics from Statista. Recognizing this challenge, Simpler Living aims to combat this trend by championing the cause of reduced space and innovative technology.
Redefining Energy Consumption in Homes
Tiny homes, the kind Simpler Living specializes in, inherently use 93% less energy than a standard household according to ipropertymanagement.com. While we will be connected to the city’s electric, water, and sewage system for the initial build, our vision includes integrating solar panels in future projects. These solar panels aim to cater to the entirety of our rental’s electrical needs. Even during the less efficient seasons, backup battery storage and generators are in place to ensure a consistent energy supply.
Efficiency in Everyday Utilities
It’s not just about the broader architectural design; even the minutiae are given due consideration. For instance, the choice of appliances in Simpler Living homes is always skewed towards energy-efficient models. These require minimal energy, ensuring optimal use of the solar power generated, once that phase of the project commences.
Contribution to Water Conservation
Additionally, while the first build will rely on the city’s water and sewage system, our direction is clear – we intend to establish systems that conserve water and energy. Small changes, like opting for a well and septic system, can cumulatively make a significant difference to the environment. Every drop of energy saved, be it water or electricity, contributes to a larger community goal of a sustainable future.
Towards a Brighter, Greener Future
Simpler Living is not just a housing solution; it’s a movement towards a greener, sustainable future. Every step, from the choice of materials to the systems in play, mirrors this ethos. As we envision our expansion, the dream is to create net positive spaces that not only sustain themselves but also give back to the environment.
