The use of energy have been getting a lot of exposure lately and renewable energy is something that we will want to incorporate in our business to do our part for the environment. However, it's always a cost-benefit kind of issue. How much does it costs to build solar panels and how much energy are we able to save?
Definitely, we will like to have solar panels so that we will only be using renewable energy for the operations of the energy but the first quotation that I have gotten from 1 company is $60K! Such a huge amount of money for a small startup does not seem feasible, and I did not manage to find any grants to subsidise this initial capital outlay. The grants offered are mainly for new technology and research rather than for capital outlay.
Next option is probably doing whatever we can within our means, and that will be to use solar heaters. Not sure how much it will cost and whether it is possible to fix the heaters within the shophouse...
Webhosting is another issue that is high up on the priority list as we want to make sure our website is up before we officially starts operations. Being a complete IT idiot, I always thought it's as simple as just buying a domain and start to create your own website. Webhosting is a time that I see for the first time in my life last week! IT is so complicated! Luckily I got a friend who is willing to help for a nominal sum of money to create a website! I just have to draw the layout and tell him what I want...
I love my friendssss!!!!
