Alternative Energy HQ solar power for homes, wind energy, and bio fuel issues

Biodiesel production, distribution, and use, as with many emerging alternative energies, has been aided in large part by recent government incentives making biodiesel fuel production and distribution more attractive. These tax incentives put money back in the pockets of biodiesel producers who, presumably, pass the benefits on to you, the consumer, with lower biodiesel prices. Not just any biodiesel is …

There are all kinds of sites on the internet that advertise the selling of biodiesel equipment but perhaps the safest place to shop is at the national biodiesel board which is quite fussy about who it lets advertise on its web site. On the national biodiesel board web site you can find biodesiel suppliers, biodiesel plants and suppliers of biodiesel …

With massive energy consumption rates, California is in a perpetual energy supply and demand struggle. The state is looking to solar as an alternative and Los Angeles just made it more attractive. Los Angeles Re-Starts Solar Incentives for Homeowners As the rolling blackouts each summer can attest, California is a state with major energy problems. The problem is so bad …

With the high gas prices which are readily seen on the market today, individuals who are looking to purchase a new car are perusing the options with fuel efficiency in mind. Prospective car buyers want to purchase a vehicle which really peaks their interest and is one which they truly desire; however, these prospective automobile purchasers may in fact be …

As a freshman in high school, I failed chemistry class due to an extreme disinterest in the entire subject. I do recall a demonstration in which the teacher hooked a large one and a half volt battery to a glass and wire electrolyzer that transformed water into separated hydrogen and oxygen. I would later learn that commercial hydrogen and oxygen producers also used this method in an inefficient manner that requires more energy than the fuel produced can generate through combustion.

One of the worlds fastest growing types of renewable energy sources is wind energy. While most of the Earth is still reliant on different types of fossil fuels (such as oil, natural gas and coal) for their energy supply, many countries are trying to come up with alternative methods of obtaining energy. Much of Europe has begun to build and use wind farms, which are groupings of wind turbines that harness the energy of the wind in order to create energy and electricity. Also involved in using wind energy, USA has started to build their own wind farms.

Have you thought about going to bio diesel for your car? Thinking green but not sure how to go about it?

When you combine the cost of fossil fuels with the pollution and climate problems they create, it can all get a bit overwhelming. It is easy to find oneself wondering where to start when dealing with these problems. Given the state of fear attitude portrayed in most media, this is hardly a surprise. Surprisingly, the answers are fairly simple if you wade through the hype.

According to the Energy Saving Trust, the UK has 40% of Europes total wind energy. But its still largely untapped and only 0.5% the UKs electricity requirements are currently generated by wind power. [tag]Wind power[/tag] is proportional to the cube of the winds speed, so relatively minor increases in speed result in large changes in potential output. Individual turbines vary …

Today, many Americans strive toward a clean, renewable energy source to meet the needs of the average consumer. That seems impractical, however, as fossil fuels and nuclear energy are excessively used in the country, causing environmental problems that pose a threat to living creatures. [tag]Solar power [/tag]has become a fortunate development in the modern world, as its advantages are far …

Are you confined to certain rv parks because you need electricity? Or are you using a generator that costs too much in gas? Would you like to be independent of these confinements and gas costs? Consider trying RV Solar Panel Kits, they can give you the freedom to travel anywhere you want for as long as you want without worry. Your generator will now act as an accessory rather than a necessity and may eliminate it all together.

Can the election of recent past lead to a change in the way alternative energy is seen in our nation's captial? According to the NY Times it just might.

November 29, 2006 Livermore, California – Power Air Corporation , today announced unit cell performance and cost improvements due to advances in the materials and design of its patented fuel cell technology. “We are very pleased with the increase in both power and lifetime achieved to date by our Engineering team” states Mr. Remy Kozak, President and CEO of Power …

While everyone agrees solar energy is a clean, cost-effective energy source, there has always been one problem. The solar panel systems tended to be large and rather bulky. Frankly, they dont add to the beauty of a home. While solar panel designs have improved over the years, a new development involving shingles is getting a lot of attention.

The simplest way to get energy is to use what is already there. The heat in the earth is already there and we just need to dig into it to tap it as a source of energy. On the surface, we can stand the heat of the earth, but deep below, immense power is stored as tremendous heat.

When it comes to running a business, much of the necessary focus is on the bottom line. Many businesses, however, fail to realize they can seriously cut energy costs by going solar.

One of the new and emerging energy solutions is biodiesel fuel for cars and equipment. This fuel that is created from natural oils is gaining wide acceptance across the coutnry, first by rabid green advocates, but more and more these days by average consumers concerned about the rising problem of oil and its implications on our economy and ecology. Biodiesel …
