Flight asked: With the emerging wind power industry, we are destined to see a select few companies make a killing with solutions to store wind / solar energy and disperse the energy as needed.
Are there any publicly traded companies who are major players in wind/solar energy storage?
Create a video blog…instantly.
KIAN asked: how do you get the appliances connected to the solar power apparatus? does it have some kind of special switch or plug or anything….? i really don’t have any idea. or do you have to buy an appliance specially made for solar power? if so can anybody recommend a brand or store that sells these?
How to Make Home Solar Power
melaniecampbell asked: We are looking at buying a house and renovating it, and were wondering about using solar or wind power to power much of our house. We will have a well, be on a septic system, have a wood burning furnace for heating the house, so we would like to have solar or wind power so we can use as little electricity as possible (its insanely expensive here!). We also have our appliances (fridge, stove, washer, dryer, freezer).
How much would a basic set up be for a 900 sq ft, 3 bedroom house? For either wind turbines or solar panels and necessary equipment? I am in Southern Ontario.
Thanks!
geeks_gadgets asked: I wanna get a solar panel to charge 1 or 2 car batteries. Then connect the battery to a 800watt power inverter so that I can power a tv. Will the 18watt solar panel charge my batteries and around in how long?
I just wanna use the panel to charge the batteries, no to use the panel directly with my electronics. Thanks for your answer and help me with that.
How to Make Solar Power
tuthutop asked: I think I’ve designed a new wind turbine and I need to start thinking about the generator part. How does an electricity generator work in this case and where might I procure one in the UK?
How to Make Solar Power
Amy Q asked: I’m doing my science fair project on solar energy and i need to know how to make a solar panel out of household objects. I found a website that said it is possible to build one out of a box, paint, plastic, and aluminum foil but I can’t find out how.
Make Home Solar Power
jchalase asked:
Should I build a Vertical Axis or Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine for this? We get a decent amount of wind every year (12 MPH in winter and 8 MPH in summer), the turbine would be no higher than 20 feet. So should i make a VAWT or HAWT? If you say VAWT don’t say ‘because it’s easier’ because I need to get as much power as I can outta this.
Jilly B asked:
I have bought a solar light for my greenhouse. Does the solar panel have to be fitted outside or can I place it inside the greenhouse. It will get masses of sun inside.
Couldn’t be better, thank U asked: I’m looking for a web site where i can download free plans for building a wind turbine, and wiring diagrams of how it connects to the house.
