The US military knows that its branches must revamp their thinking about how to engage in “the theater of war” in the new, post-Cold War world of the 21st century. One thing that the military leaders stress is the desire for the forces deployed in the theater to be able to be more energy-independent. Currently the US military has policies …

Many people who take jobs in the alternative energies research and development sector have to, at least in the beginning, take relatively low pay. Taking a job in this industry is thus not about—or, not predominantly about—making money, although that is needless to say important, as one who is not well-fed soon becomes one who is not productive at work, …

The popularity of solar power is now making people ask the above question and this is asked to make sure that they will make the right decision in the installation of their solar power system. There is no general answer to this. The truth is that the answer is dependent on some factors. With careful consideration of these factors, you …

The popularity of solar power systems were first appreciated when calculators and watches used solar cells instead of the conventional batteries. The advantage of having these solar cells resulted to savings to those who used them and because of this the technology has been used in other similar electronic or electrical gadgets or devices. These days, solar power systems are …

This is the time when the need for efficiency is very high considering the rising cost of utilities and consumer goods. With the present economic condition, it is very hard to cope with the increase in oil prices affecting all the other aspects of man’s consumption including electricity, water, food and other basic necessities. It is good that there are …

Technology has created many developments that have improved today’s way of life. There have been many discoveries and inventions that made the world a better place to live in. One of the developments that have greatly affected many people is the use of solar power as a means to generate electricity to power household appliances. This development has created many …

You may be in a situation of considering the use of a solar power system in your home because you know that this is more efficient than using the conventional energy source. However, you may be thinking at how efficient solar power is at the technical level. You have to note that the efficiency rating of using solar power can …

As soon as you have produced your monocrystalline solar panels. You now need to connect them to a system that will allow you to either use, store or feed to the grid the electricity you have generated. You probably have a rough idea of what you want your finished system to look like, but plan very carefully. Know exactly how …

This healing mineral. Natural zeolites are known as a new kind of non – traditional raw materials. Zeolites are crystalline aluminosilicates of water containing cations of the elements of groups I and II of the periodic system, in particular, sodium, calcium, magnesium, potassium, strontium, barium. Moreover zeolites are known for their strong molecular – sieve effect. These adsorbents have a …

Our geothermal history began some ten thousand years ago, when the Paleo-Indians of North America 1st started utilizing geothermal energy after they made their homes close to springs with natural geothermal energy. They used these springs as geothermal energy reservoirs for heat and purification, plus using the minerals within the springs for restorative healing. Technological people have been operating onerous …

How does geothermal energy work is a sensible query, and one which I have usually been asked. In this article I should initial justify what it is, and then how it will be created to work for man. Geothermal energy is, literally, the heat of the earth. The heat itself derives from radioactive decay beneath the world’s surface and, in …

Revenue The profitability of a Wind Farm depends on the kind of wind turbine used, construction prices, performance of wind turbine generation, Operations and Maintenance (O&M), land lease/ royalty payments, and wholesale energy prices from a Power Purchase Agreement. Massive turbines selling power to the grid will be financially viable where the common wind speed is estimated to be bigger …

Currently the United State and also the reset of the world face terribly high inflation and economic uncertainty drive primarily by high worth of gasoline. Because of the growing demand for energy in China and India, there are various upward pressures put on value of crude oil in the globe markets. High crude oil prices and unusually high farming land …

New research shows that the cost of installing and owning solar panels will fall even faster than expected, BBC News reported. Some 90 percent of existing solar panels last for 30 years, instead of the predicted 20 years — which brings down the lifetime cost, according to the independent EU Energy Institute. In fact, the panels are such a good …

Concentrated Solar Power, or “CSP,” and refers to the type of solar power which is created by concentrating sunlight into a small area, thus creating intense light and heat which can in turn create power and electricity. Concentrated Solar Power is one of the technologies which has been developed in order to harness the energy emitted by the sun and …

If you are shopping for an air purifier, then you have found that mostly what is available is portable and small.Many times these air purifiers are only designed to handle one or two rooms. Unfortunately, this leads many individuals to believe that there is no such thing as a whole house air purifier. The good news is that if you …

Fuel cells are electrochemical devices that combine hydrogen and oxygen in order to produce electricity. During the power generation cycle, water and heat are produced as a by-products. This is a far more ideal byproduct than the unclean emissions which are created by other methods of generating electricity. They will operate and generate power so long as fuel is supplied. …

Oil and its alternatives, such as biodiesel, are continuously in the news. When oil prices go up, it seems that everyone is affected. Many countries’ economies depend on oil. And this is one reason why people are looking for a cleaner and cheaper alternatives to our conventional fossil fuels. One of these alternative forms of energy is biodiesel. What is …

One form of alternative energy you can use in cooling your home is geothermal energy. This might sound surprising, but you can use the energy found in your own backyard by utilizing geothermal heat pumps. You can save up to 70% on cooling bills. The bad news is that professionally installed geothermal systems are too expensive. The good news is …

If you can find one person in the United States who wouldn’t say “YES” as loud as possible, I would be surprised. I started building solar panels because I could save on some electric and gas bills, but now the Federal Government is actually encouraging me to do it. I know, sounds crazy that the Feds would want to help …
