			<description><![CDATA[Hi everyone, I would like to introduce myself to the alternative power community.   Since my retirement 15yrs ago I have been working on a new form of power source, Before you dismiss this as crazy please bear with me.<br />
I was successful in my working life, building an aerospace company from scratch, ending up as a prime supplier to Rolls Royce and several other major aircraft and engine manufacturers, employing more than 300 people.<br />
A large part of my success came from innovative techniques most of which came to me in dreams or semi dream like states, sometimes induced by smoking alternative substances. I am not proud of this but thats how it is.<br />
Eventually I came up with a device, which produces motion(powerful motion) with apparently no use of fuels. I am not sure yet how this works, as much of the experimentation was by trial and error.  I have a suspicion that it draws energy from some kind of flux which is all around us.<br />
Basically an Iron lined conical housing with a beryllium cone with Boules Sapphires inlaid into the cone  in a proprietary pattern which I don't wish to disclose at this time. The cone is presented to the housing whilst being resonated at certain frequencies using parts from an old ultrasonic cleaning tank. Anyone interested???????????]]></description>

Question is, a 3000 watt grid tie inverter is &#36;1500... a 1200 watt is &#36;200.. can i buy 3 power jack grid tie inverters and stack them to accomodate the highest possible power output from my windturbine? and...if so, what happens if one inverter goes out and my turbine is putting out 2700 watts? will the grid tie inverters only pull what it needs to use the 1200 watts each and the excess power just sit there like my solar panel does, or will it burn something up?<br />

			<description><![CDATA[Hi, I'm John. I have been working on alternative solutions to high cost power companies for a few years. I currently have 5 acres of property 1 mile off the highway, where the power company wanted &#36;26,000 to run poles so I could pay them each month. HA! That being said, I am producing my own with both wind and solar, using modified UPS's ( un-interruptible power supplies) separated for each room. This makes all of my systems redundant, and if a failure occurs, only one room or system goes down. Plus, it makes each system smaller. Currently, I am changing all of my lighting to low voltage LED's, so that the UPS's are not in use nearly as often, and to reduce power draw. I am also working on new wind turbines, using trolling motors. These motors are waterproof, permanent magnet, and with minor mods are showing good results. I should have more info in the next day or so after it stops raining and I can mount one to see actual output.<hr />
Side note; I just purchased from govdeals.com a Ferrups Uniteruptible Power System. FE series 3.1 KVA  60HZ. true sine wave with a separate battery storage unit for...get this: &#36;84.00!!! The unit retails for &#36;4,800.00 plus the box and batteries ( batteries are small, but 50 bucks a piece, and the box sells on e-bay re manufactured for over 700). Great site to look for bargains and also to see how government wastes your money. The unit is 2 1/2 years old and in working condition. This is so my wife can use a few appliances in the kitchen to keep me happy!]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Hi, I'm John. I have been working on alternative solutions to high cost power companies for a few years. I currently have 5 acres of property 1 mile off the highway, where the power company wanted &#36;26,000 to run poles so I could pay them each month. HA! That being said, I am producing my own with both wind and solar, using modified UPS's ( un-interruptible power supplies) separated for each room. This makes all of my systems redundant, and if a failure occurs, only one room or system goes down. Plus, it makes each system smaller. Currently, I am changing all of my lighting to low voltage LED's, so that the UPS's are not in use nearly as often, and to reduce power draw. I am also working on new wind turbines, using trolling motors. These motors are waterproof, permanent magnet, and with minor mods are showing good results. I should have more info in the next day or so after it stops raining and I can mount one to see actual output.<hr />

			<title><![CDATA[WATER AND HYDROELECTRIC POWER]]></title>

			<description><![CDATA[I thought that, as the focal point of this ESP is water, we should discuss about hydroelectric power.<br />
According to Wikipedia, " Hedroelectricity is electricity generated by hydropower, i.e., the production of power through use of the gravitational force of falling or flowing water. It is the most widely used form of renewable energy. Once a hydroelectric complex is constructed, the project produces no direct waste and has a considerably lower output level of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide than fossil fuel power energy plants."<br />
Many people support this form of energy, because it has many advantages. For example, it does not produce waste or pollution. It is also more reliable than wind, solar or wave power. And, of course, electricity produced there can be generated constantly.<br />
On the other hand, there are many who oppose this form of energy. One disadvantage of hydroelectric dams is that they are very expensive to build, whereas building a large dam can cause problems for animals that used to live it the area. Another drawback is that the water quality of the area the dam is built can be affected, which can have an impact on plant life. Finally, the impact a hydroelectric complex will have on the residents of the district where it is built can be unacceptable and may lead to the relocation of the people living there.<br />
So, what do you think? Is hydroelectric power a solution to our energy problems?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[A wind turbine is a rotating machine which converts the kinetic energy in wind into mechanical energy. If the mechanical energy is used directly by machinery, as like a pump or grinding stones, the machine is usually called a windmill. If the mechanical energy is then converted to electricity, the machine is called a wind generator, wind turbine, wind power,<br />
wind power is a wonderfull way to get more high power energy<br />
<br />
It are not affected by the direction of the wind, which is useful in areas where the wind changes direction frequently and quickly. Unlike traditional horizontal axis wind turbines, a yaw mechanism is not needed to turn the wind turbine towards the wind.it are better able to harvest turbulent air flow found around buildings and other structures<br />
wind turbine are ideal for both rural and urban applications, including roof top installations. Depending on the shape of the roof, the wind flow over the roof can be concentrated, leading to an increased energy output]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Solar is the fastest growing energy source in the world, and for good reason. It offers a limitless supply of clean, safe, renewable energy for heat and power. And it’s more affordable, more efficient, and more reliable than ever.<br />
<br />
The advantages of Solar and other renewable power sources are clear: greater independence from imported fossil fuels, a cleaner environment, diversity of power sources, relief from the volatility of energy prices, more jobs and greater domestic economic development. All over the world, solar energy systems have reduced the need to build more carbon-spewing fossil-fueled power plants. They are critical weapons in the battle against global warming. As the cost of solar technologies has come down, solar is moving into the mainstream and growing worldwide at 40-50% annually.<br />
<br />
There are currently three primary solar technologies:<br />
<br />
* Solar (photovoltaic) energy allows electricity to be produced in the place where it is consumed, a practice known as distributed generation. Sunlight hours often coincide with peak power demand, so solar panels produce electricity when it is most needed. Reducing peak load through large-scale solar generation improves air quality and reduces the need for new polluting power plants.<br />
<br />
* Solar thermal systems provide heat for hot water and space-heating systems for residential or commercial buildings, and can provide energy for air-conditioning in many commercial applications.<br />
<br />
* Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) is a solar thermal technology that can provide electricity at utility scale for central power plants.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I am looking for some advice about moving to Upstate NY. I am originally from the Long Island/Queens area, &amp; have lived in Arizona for the past 9 years &amp; want out. All of my family still live on the Island &amp; Queens; too expensive &amp; busy for me. I am a single mom of 3 &amp; a grandma to a almost 1 year old grandson. The Greenwich area northeast of Albany seems nice. I would like some land &amp; build a green home "off the grid", I want to grow my own organic food &amp; have some chickens for their eggs (I don't eat meat but haven't gone vegan yet) have some goats &amp; a few horses. I am an RN &amp; will need to be no more than 30-45 min. away from a healthcare facility for work. I am a Holistic Health Practitioner &amp; would like to run a small natural health business from my home/land. I am a Reiki Master,<br />
Myofascial Release Practitioner treating both people &amp; horses. Would like to be somewhere with a lower amount of snow than some of the central parts of the state get, low crime, good schools, small town, good healthy living. I'm not rich so if anyone has info on grants or non-profits I would like to provide a rescue for PMU horses or abused dogs, &amp; run some type of camp for kids in need. I've seen children &amp; animals work wonders healing one another. SORRY so long any advice/ideas would greatly be appreciated]]></description>
