What can truly sustainable living look like? Is it achievable?
With added stress to the grid, increased population, and climate change happening at exponential rates, what can we do as humans to live sustainably?
We think the idea of a city or town must be reimagined in some ways. Planned development with a mind on sustainability and efficient living is the goal. Modern technology, modern materials, and modern building techniques have the ability to help transform an urban landscape.
But what if it is put at the center before any development has occurred. Could it work?
We foresee towns and ultimately cities reimagined, with a critical eye on:
• Water conservation
• Waste management
• Renewable Energy and a self-maintained, autonomous micro-grid
• Sustainable and renewable agricultural practices
Astera Energy started its journey on the heels of the Inflation Reduction Act.
As a licensed contractor with experience in solar installation, large developments that could generate large incentives and tax credits, made perfect sense.
As we began to develop further, we realized that solar is only one component to a truly sustainable development.
Much will need to be done, and we are happy to get to work.
