As the world is in a continuous struggle to fight global warming and other environment pollutants, technological innovations which are environmental friendly are gaining prominence. Different approaches taken to tackle these issues and utilize Green Energy, currently focus mainly on wind energy and hence wind turbines, photovoltaic cells , and even the use of the stirling engine. You may be …

More people are becoming interested in the advantages of Home Solar Power Systems. Using one of these systems is the only way to gain your independence from local utilities which supply electrical energy for your home. By installing solar panels on your house and the generator needed to convert sunlight into usable energy, you’ll never have to worry about power …

A major problem for many families today is the price development of home essentials, such as electricity. Today we are completely dependent on electricity. It powers our homes, schools and offices; today there is no way we could ever live without it. The problem is that this essential part of our lives is getting really expensive due to global rises …

Awhile back we alerted you to the development of the first partially solar powered cargo ship in Japan. Well word is out now that the ship has hit the seas for its’ first sail. From Yahoo news: The world’s first cargo ship partly propelled by solar power took to the seas on Friday in Japan, aiming to cut fuel costs …

Many people are starting to switch their power to solar power since the finite fuel is starting to run out and become costly. In fact, solar power offers lots of benefits rather than the finite doesn’t produce harmful emissions or pollution. It will charge you lots of money for heating a swimming pool when you decide not to apply the …

This article will describe how solar energy is created and cover some of its basic principles. Solar energy consists of the light and heat emitted by the sun, in the form of electromagnetic radiation. With today’s technology, we are able to capture this radiation and turn it into usable forms of solar energy – such as heating or electricity. Although …

The price of oil has submarined lately giving all of us a break from pump shock when filling up our cars. BUT this is not the long term solution to our energy problems folks. It has tanked because the economy is in the dumper. Once it recovers we are in the same damn boat. So we still need to pay …

Slip back in time 30 years and you’ll see that the green movement was positively anti-nuclear. It seems strange that 30 years on some of the very same people are putting their hopes on nuclear power to prevent global warming. It may be that we have little choice other than to go Nuclear but we have to ask the question …

So yesterday we featured some news and video abut the upcoming Aptera electric car which is a real head turner on the road in that it departs from conventional car design to the point of being almost completely unique. It bears further review. So today we feature a wrap up of various videos on the Aptera development. Aptera Electric Car …

Want to see more of the Aptera Electric Car? Well Zap Root just did one of their shows about it. We have reported on this new thoroughly modern electric car before but it i snow coming close to production status so you can get your hands on one too. Isn’t their host just so perky. How does she do that? …

Do you know how solar energy works actually? Some people do not care too much on how solar energy works and it may happen on you too. Nevertheless, it will be very useful to know how solar energy works for humans. Solar power is probably the cleanest and most viable form of renewable energy. The advantages of solar energy beats …

Rain Stockton asked: In the old days it used to be that you just drove your Nissan Sentra and perhaps its brand new Nissan Sentra parts over to McDonalds to get some of those yummy French fries and Mcburgers.

It has being observed that the consumption of non renewable sources has caused more environmental damage than any other human activity. Electricity generated from fossil fuels such as coal and crude oil has led to high concentrations of harmful gases in the atmosphere. This has in turn led to many problems being faced today such as ozone depletion and global …

A new alternative energy solution is has been put to the test, and it’s been given the go-ahead for production in Australia. It’s a solar chimney. This new solar power station is based on solar tower technology designed in Germany. An incredible thing about this new technology is the simplicity of its design, and its ingenious use of basic principles …

Imagine a T-shirt that runs you iPod, a pair of jeans that recharges your cell phone, and a beach umbrella that runs a TV. Sound far-fetched? Okay, I will agree with you that it does. Nevertheless, research into photovoltaics and solar energy has reached a point where these are definite possibilities. What Are Organic Photovoltaics? Organic Photovoltaics, or OPV for …

Andrew Bicknell asked: With the rising gas prices of today many people have begun to look for an alternative way to put fuel in their cars. A biodiesel kit fits the bill for many people who have started making this oil saving fuel in their own backyards. And why not make your own fuel, the hit to wallets and bank …
