Solar & Wind Energy FAQ
So far I have heard reasons why respectively one (ethanol, hydrogen, solar, and whatever else) won't be able to replace oil. What do you guys surmise? Electric cars are the wave of the future. New electric cars are...
Can some one explain to the minions the difference between influential and restrained solar heartiness?
I've been to green living enviromental etc...theres some really strange people thinking that all solar liveliness is bad.Help the ignorant please.anything you want it to be from your spelling. Why does anyone think any solar sparkle is bad (did they...
why are the management not pumping every penny they can into loop life,and alike .?
solid fuel and oil are running out,wind farms dont harm enviroment. Because they could not justify "increases" once up and running they have little maintenance costs, believe it to be the foundation we have not got more solar power, it...
can anyone explain to me nearly operation and application of a solar power source?
i need answer for this question as soon as possible solar power souce is used in remote location or where on earth electricity is very poor. the system works like this: the solar panels drive within the current from the...
Solar power box?
Is there anything like a portable Solar Power Box that will power normal devices useing 110v, near standard three prong plug? I have a few items in my back courtyard (well pump, pond pump, spot lights) that need to run on...
Is cheaper solar power possible? How and where on earth can you buy the equipment cheaper?
I know companies are working on ways of producing panels cheaper etc. etc... But I would like to know if anyone knows where on earth or how one could purchase used or "second hand" materials such as panels, inverters, meters, etc....
Anyone into building solar powered inverters?
I use small 24v transformers with a center tap using two transistors for a push pull stage, would love to see other diagrams that others come up with.http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y31/Pumpkins0_0/Picture-1.jpghttp://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y31/Pumpkins0_0/DCP_1857.jpg I am very much into it, although I've never actually built anything...
Solar power??
I have read about a new type of solar panel/material explicitly made up of five different metals (can't remember which ones) that are produced more inexpensively than silicon cells. Possible applications were in roof shingles, panel, they were even working on...
What make it so difficult for tropical countries to harness solar punch?
Even though it may be compulsive option in the near futrue - its the cost factor which keep us away. In many countries it is being used for street lighting / water heat etc.
It is possible to harness power from solar vigour, to orbit big solar collector, how to collect user on top soil.
I mean, if we can install big solar collector outside earth to orbit facing to the sun, it is possible, if possible, how can our expert verbs the collected energy to the earth ? They actually considered this resembling 20...
how masses solar panel do i call for to power a small house?
im only powering lights and fans Solar panels produce DC (12v, 24v, 48v, etc) voltage. You will requirement to invert the solar power to AC. The amount of panels is determined on the amount of Watt Hours of electrical load...
Solar Power Economics?
I have a farm with 100 unused acres. I be thinking of putting in a solar field. Does anyone know the economics of solar fields? Specifically, what do the panel cost, how much is installation, how much power do they generate,...
how much solar get-up-and-go reach the Earth contained by a single light of day, minute or second?
I have heard that the Earth receives more or less 1 kw per square meter (source unknown). The mean cross section of Earth is pi r^2, with r = 6,371,007 meter. That give me 4.059 * 10^16 Watt = 40.59 petaWatt....
how solar dynamism tranfered to a device. Does solar generate AC to DC currents ?
First, most think of solar generation when created from Photo Voltaic Cells. These would generate DC. Second, any device that is MOVED by solar zest would generate AC. This includes Hydro-electric, Wind Mills, Tidal electric generationEnergy from Solar power...
How much solar life contained by occupancy of Megawatt is required to use it as a commercial and how much will it cost?
even in winter we are facing load shedding for about 90 minutes day by day in Karachi. and in summer about 5 to 6 hrs each day it costs about 20cents (US) per kilowatt hour for large scale installations.
