?????Hi Friends of CoolWorld,
??? This is eMaya. I bring you a perspective of the energy consumption of the World.As much as 85% of the energy requirements of the World are met through fossil fuels, the balance from nuclear and renewable sources. The wind power industry has shown good promise thanks to the cash flow from Carbon Credits and now generates 2% of the total electric power! Other sources like mini hydel, solar, and geothermal have developed momentum for growth.
??? But 65% of the energy consumed by the World is as heat and only 35% as electricity. The only way to save fossil fuels substantially is go for nuclear energy, which can create steam as well as electricity to meet bulk of the energy demand. We have to study the method of increasing nuclear energy in a massive and economic way.??? Yours, eMaya.?

Of course there is no real fight, but the battle is really on. Today the fossil fuels like crude oil are our main source of energy. The problem with fossil fuels are that they very harmful for our environment. With the combustion of these fuels we pollute the earth and are gradually heating up the planet. This will have a major impact on the climates we currently have. We will see and are seeing dramatic changes in weather which can ruin cities within minutes or hours. All because of these negative side effects.
Also we are running out of fossil fuels and they are more difficult to extract from the depths of the earth. The problem with these old energy sources is that it takes a very long time to form. It took the earth millions of years to form the current supply of old fuels and because we are extracting these from the earth to meet the growing demands we are running out.

Because the demand for energy is growing and the total supply is shrinking prices are increasing. This increase in demand for energy is not only caused by the western countries. New economies are rising and are in need of energy, a lot of energy. The problem is that these demands can not be met and it will not be resolved in the near future. Thus it can be said that the rising trend in crude oil prices will not be stopped.

When we look at alternative energy we can see great potential. These energy sources are available every day. The amount varies but the fact remains that sunshine, wind and running water will always be available. Therefore this source is cheap and available for nearly all.

Another great advantage is that converting these sources into useable electricity does not result in pollution. This is a clean form of energy that has no negative effect on the environment. Taking these advantages into the bigger picture it can be sad that we cannot go wrong with alternate energy. It is the right path.

When we look at the heavy weight championship fight ‘Crude Oil’ vs. ‘Alternative energy’, Oil may be the heavy-hitter, but hasn’t got the stamina to go to full length of the fight. Alternative energy may be getting a few hits in the first few rounds, but those hits only get faster and stronger all the time. The fight will last longer then a few rounds and at the end a knocked out will follow and the next heavy weight champion will be crowned. Be sure to put your money on the next champion.

If you are currently looking into a high capacity solar charger, then you definitely need to read this quick article – it will have the effect of seriously broadening your knowledge of incorporating solar electricity into your life. What would you say if someone were to offer you a plan which makes it possible to transform the vast power of the sun into useable electric power for an unbelievable ridiculous cost – is that possible? Keep reading the following article.

Not long ago, equipping your house with a stand-alone solar energy power generator was simply too expensive for most families to consider investing in, but some saw it as the ideal solution. You are one of many thousands who search the web for a high capacity solar charger, which is evidence that interest in solar energy is expanding, and there are many who want to educate themselves on this exciting field.

The newest development in this arena is that the solar energy dream has become reachable and as the technology has improved, the price has dropped, so anyone can have more energy than you can use – ‘on the house.’ Harnessing the sun’s energy for personal use is a longstanding alternative, although it remained out of reach for the majority due to the price; so we continued to feel trapped in our relationship with the electric company, all the while paying high prices for an essential need.

Before you go any further with your investigation into a high capacity solar charger, You should hear about the latest progress in this field: an experienced renewable energy expert has discovered a simple method for you to fabricate solar panels and start reaping the cost-effective and earth-friendly rewards of solar power without the need for any expensive or hard to find materials. I discovered that there are in fact a large number of people in the u.s. and globally who already enjoy the benefits of solar power, to not only generate enough electricity for their own use, but even get paid by the power company for the extra power that they produce. As it has now become the common-sense solution, the revolutionary solution is bound to ‘lighten up’ energy production as we know it.

This is due to many factors but the primary reason is the obvious one and the elephant in living room ? global warming.? Scientists have been warning people and policy makers for quite some time now but many weren?t listening.? It seems that people are finally listening and, the search for alternative energy sources is in full swing.

There are advantages and disadvantages for almost all energy sources and geothermal is not alone in this.? Hydropower, solar, wind power, bio fuels, tidal and nuclear all have their up sides and down sides, some more than others.? The advantages of geothermal are many: they deliver low cost electricity, produce very low emissions, are unaffected by changing weather, provide a continuous power supply (base load). And, geothermal power plants are scalable, meaning they can produce power for a small town or a large city depending on the size of the geothermal field and generating capacity of the plant.

There are disadvantages of course.? Geothermal power plants deal in very corrosive fluids which require special handling, these power plants do emit low levels of carbon dioxide, sulfur, nitric oxide and geothermal hot water can contain trace amounts of heavy metals such as mercury.? But there are techniques and technologies that exist today that can mitigate most of these issues down to a negligible figure.? There are also concerns that geothermal fields can be depleted, i.e. that the heat is sapped out to a level that makes it very inefficient from a power generating standpoint.? But, the counter-argument is that very careful consideration must be given as to the potential of a field and that the size of the generating plant must not be too large as to sap the reserve.

Furthermore, new technologies exist today that are making it more possible to extract energy efficiently from low temperature fields. I am not an engineer so please excuse my rough description of these technologies.? This new technology is called Kalina and it is an advancement to the binary cycle geothermal plants in that it uses an ammonia and water mixture to produce steam to drive the turbines.? Ammonia is used because it has a much lower boiling point than water.? The Binary cycle type plants, in general produce much less emissions by use of a heat exchanger wherein the hot water from the ground heats a secondary fluid like isobutane, or in the case of Kalina, an ammonia mixture, which is vaporized to drive the turbine.

Green Living Kit.

We may find the sunlight very pleasant to be in. If we continue to sit in the sunlight for a long time, we find our skin becoming hot because it absorbs the heat present in the sunshine. But since the sunshine is percolating every nook and corner where the sun?s rays reach, the heat is not felt easily. The heat gets dissipated with the atmosphere. That is why it is difficult to capture the heat in the sunlight to such a point that it can be put to use to provide heat and energy to its full potential.

To trap the latent heat in the sunlight sufficiently so that we can use it to warm our homes after the sunset, we need to use the principle in the magnifying glass, that is, we need something that will garner the heat of the sunshine and concentrate it upon a particular area. That something is a solar collector, just like a magnifying glass. It captures the sunlight falling upon it and allows the sunlight to pass through and into the area beyond it. The articles in the space beyond the solar collector absorb and capture the solar heat. The solar collector provides only a one way passage to the heat and traps it so that it cannot get back to its source. One example of solar collector is glass which allows passage of the sunrays through the glass and into container beyond it. The Sun?s rays making up the sunshine travel in straight lines so that once they are through the solar collector, they are not able to turn back themselves. Thus the solar collector effectively traps the heat energy present in the sun?s rays and the area under the glass becomes warm or hot. The articles in the area under the glass absorb the heat and prevent it from escaping back. Thus the area under the glass is heated by solar power and it remains hot for a long time since the heat is trapped there.

The greenhouses make use of this great natural solar collector, that is, glass. The glass walls trap the heat in the sunshine and the greenhouse remains warm long after the sunset or when the sunshine does not reach the greenhouse because of cloudy atmosphere. Thus the warm atmosphere inside the greenhouse is maintained even during cold seasons.
