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 …

Joey asked: I am doing homework, and my last page in the packet that I have to do is draw a picture or picture(s) with thermal energy conservation ideas. You guys got any good ones? Keep in mind, I’m 14, and not a very good artist. Give me something good. Solar power

lion_sim_bob asked: Rows of wind-powered generators are used in various windy locations to generate electric power. Does the power generated affect the speed of the wind? Would locations behind the windmills be windier if the windmills weren’t there? Discuss this in terms of energy conservation. Water 4 Gas

^.^ asked: How energy conservation contribute towards green buildings? Water 4 Gas

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. …

Shadow Knight asked: Some partisans rejected calls to celebrate “Earth Hour” by turning off their lights and electrical equipment. Instead they celebrated “Human Achievement Hour and tried to use as much energy as possible. Was that a sensible course of action? Is the goal of energy conservation and improved efficiency worth making sacrifices to achieve? Solar power
