The Oracle of Delphi was a priestess said to have gone into trances to reach God. These trances are thought today to be caused by ethylene, a natural gas, that seeped through cracks in the rock below the temple. More: continued here

When natural gas is cooled at normal pressure to about -260°F, it condenses into a liquid form known as Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG). LNG takes up about one six hundredth the volume of gaseous natural gas making it very efficient to transport. When it is necessary to transport natural gas energy to stranded or mountainous destinations, shipping it as LNG …

There are many solar panel grants available today, for both solar water heating and PV. Before searching for Solar Panel Grants, decide what type of solar collector you want then search specifically for that. More: continued here

Remember when Jed Clampett discovered that “bubblin’ crude” on the fanciful Beverly Hillbillies television show in the 1960’s? While being an entertaining show that spawned several spin-off ideas (think Green Acres and Petticoat Junction), it was not, however a realistic portrayal of the way entrepreneurial oil companies locate, acquire, and process the precious oil that is used in so many …

Of course everyone is aware that oil serves as a sensational fuel for heating your house or business, for keeping your automobile or motorcycle running smoothly, and helping the transportation of goods to ports and customers worldwide, but most people would be very surprised at how big a part oil plays in making the products we all use day to …

The history of Texas oil exploration began as far back as 1859, when a determined young entrepreneur, Lyne Taliaferro Barret leased 279 acres near an area in East Texas aptly named Oil Springs for its oil and gas seepage that had been observed by Native Americans and early Texas settlers for many years. His preliminary exploratory pursuits were unfortunately interrupted …

The future of crude oil is uncertain as of now, there are many different directions and outcomes, however there is a most likely scenario which we can discuss. I will be discussing what I think the future of crude oil will be and what effects it will have on the world. But before going into that I am going to …

Hydrogen powered cars represent the leading edge of alternative fuel technology. The concept of a zero-emissions vehicle is something that environmental policies of many nations have set as a goal. Liquid hydrogen fuel represents one of the great hopes in the fulfillment of this policy. More: continued here

Natural gas is one of the world’s most important fossil fuels. The denotation of “fossil fuel” comes from the belief that most scientists share, that natural gas and other “fossil fuels” were formed from the remains of tiny sea animals and plants that perished 200-400 million years ago. Scientists believe that when these tiny organisms died, they sank to the …

Heating oil prices are increasing slowly, they are becoming more obvious as time goes by, and the prices will continue to go up and up until the fuels needed are burnt up. We need these fuels to produce heat and warmth in our homes, so where are heating oil prices headed? I will be discussing where I think that heat …

Because it can be stored indefinitely, natural gas is the most readily available of the fossil fuels. The exploration, production, and transportation of natural gas takes time. Often, when natural gas reaches its destination, it is not always needed immediately, so it is stored underground in large storage reservoirs strategically located all over the United States.

Did you know that solar power is a renewable, clean and cheap source of energy? Once the mystique is removed from the idea of using solar energy to produce power people will began to understand how it all works. This will lead to people seeing how using solar energy to produce power can be looked at as a viable alternative …

Of the fossil fuels, natural gas is the cleanest source of energy to use for many of our every day needs and activities. It plays an important part in reducing pollution so that a clean and healthy environment can be maintained. Because of its almost perfect combustion process, very few byproducts are emitted into the atmosphere as pollutants. The environmentally …

SAN FRANCISCO, Calif.—Nov. 5, 2007—Pacific Gas and Electric Company today announced that it has entered into a 177 megawatt solar thermal power purchasing agreement with Ausra Inc. The project, to be located in central California, is being developed by Ausra. “Today’s agreement between PG&E and Ausra highlights how clean energy will create jobs in California while delivering a reliable source …

Oil is one of three fossil fuels found in the earth’s surface formed about 300 millions of years ago before the time of the dinosaurs during the Carboniferous Period. At the time, the land was covered with swamps filled with huge trees, ferns, large leafy plants and rich vegetation. The oceans were filled with algae another form of vegetation made …

I came across this today and thought to myself now there is a cool idea. Voltaic has created a backpack that is embedded with [tag]solar panels[/tag] which you can use to charge up your gear on the go outdoors. Yeah that’s right solar power on the go on your backpack. Seems they have put enough solar charging juice into these …
