Renewable Energy At Home

We've been learning about op-amp circuits, and in the lab we power them with a power supply that has a range of 0-20 V, with two sources so that both polarities are available (we generally use +/- 12 volts). Obviously, this isn't very practical for most applications. Is there a way to power op-amp circuits [...]

I am truly fascinated with the whole 'space/time continuum' and the way it all fits together. Have you ever noticed that energy and matter act a lot like water? The way that water swirls down a drain is the same as how all matter swirls down into a black hole… the way water moves over [...]

Aluminium production currently releases a massive amount of greenhouse gases in to the atmosphere. Does anyone think there is an Alternative Energy source the Aluminum Industry could use to prevent the amount of Greenhouse Gases they are currently releasing? Alternative fuels, also known as non-conventional fuels, are any materials or substances that can be used [...]

I recently got a laptop and will soon be going on a long trip. Are there any kind of power cables that can be plugged into the lighter/power source? If there are any, where could I be able to find such cables? yes its called a dc/ac converter and you can get them just about [...]

Didn't she sing high praise for Bush's faith during the 2004 presidential election? And didn't she sing high praises of Bush's Iraq plan in 2004? And how she had praised Cheney with "But driven can come out harsh, and Cheney has become a lightning rod for critics of everything from energy policy to Iraq. The [...]

I want to know how I can determine my area's (Rochester NY) yearly solar energy output to see if it would make economic sense to install solar panels. Any websites or resources where I can look? If you are looking for the cheapest electrical power available solar panels are not going to be what you [...]

My family is really "Green" when it comes to our lifestyle. I just need to know how much it would cost for solar panels to provide our electricity. How many would one house need? Do they charge by the panel? It is not that simple. You need panels, batteries to store the energy, an inverter. [...]
