Alternative Energy – The Facts – Solar Power – Part 3

Concentrated Solar Power Systems use concentrated solar radiation as a high temperature energy source to produce electrical power and drive chemical reactions. Concentrating solar power (CSP) systems use lenses or mirrors and tracking systems to focus a large area of sunlight into a small beam.

The concentrated light is then used as a heat source for… Read the rest

Alternative Energy – The Facts Part 2- Wind Power

Wind power is another alternative energy source that could be used without producing by-products that are harmful to nature. Like solar power, harnessing the wind is highly dependent upon weather and location. The average wind velocity of Earth is around 9 m/sec. Wind turbines are used to harness the wind. The diagram below shows a… Read the rest

The Future of Alternative Energy – “The future belongs to renewable energy ” says MyWindPowerSystem.com. The use of Alternative Energy is on everyone’s mind and scientists and industry experts may disagree over how long the world’s supply of oil and natural gas will last, but it will end.… Read the rest

ITM -Power – Energy Companies Look Into A bright Future With New Invention To Store Wind Power

Denmark is the most developed wind farm economy in the world, but even in Denmark the wind farms rarely produce enough energy to meet the daily troughs of demand. It is not that wind isn’t powerful enough to take care of all of our needs, it is that it is simply not always blowing at the… Read the rest

UK Wind Turbines to Quadruple – Britain’s New Renewable Energy Strategy

It is likely that under the UK Government’s Renewable Energy Strategy Plan, 3,000 wind turbines will be installed offshore the UK’s coast line. It is said that the number of wind turbines is set to quadruple over the next decade under government plans to force through wind farm planning applications. A Renewable Energy Strategy with wind… Read the rest

Decreasing Wind Speeds Across United States

A report about the decrease of average wind speeds across America. Iowa State University climate researchers have found in a study that wind speeds in parts of the United States are declining which could impact more than the wind power industry. The Journal of Geophysical Research – Atmospheres will publish the study of the three Iowa… Read the rest

Residential Wind Turbine System for Rooftops under ,000

Earthtronics, the alternative energy company, has developed a small rooftop wind turbine. The 2kw Honeywell Wind Turbine can produce wind power from wind speeds of two miles per hour to 45 miles per hour. So far there are only very few turbines hitting the market that can produce energy from such a low wind speed.

Electricity Prices Rise Again In The UK

Today’s report for the UK predicts that electricity bills for domestic consumers will rise again in the near future, over and above the increases already announced this year, with serious consequences for millions of households.”
Last week, energy providers in the UK started what is expected to be a new round of price rises increasing bills… Read the rest

ROC – Incentives for companies to build alternative energy projects

ROC – These incentives are also know as renewables obligation certificates in the UK. They are handed out to clean energy providers for every megawatt hour(MW/hr) that a wind farm or tidal turbine might produce. The interesting thing is that these certificates can then be traded, typically with polluting companies such as coal fired power stations.… Read the rest
