This could not become a case of “Too good to be true”, if you consider the paradox that if anything is good and is cheap it seems to promptly get sent to a silent grave. This is often easily seen in the field of alternative medicine, so I have no idea why it would be any different with alternative energy. …

We no longer need to burn fossil fuels to produce usable energy. Today there are many alternative forms of usable energy available to us. Choosing to utilize other forms of renewable energy such as solar panels not only reduces our carbon footprint and the impact that we have on the world, but also provides us with a sustainable energy source …

The heading of this information may well reflect the truth, because it does seem as if anything that doesn’t cost much and actually works quietly disappears from the market. This is often readily seen in the field of alternative medicine, so I have no idea why it would be any different with alternative energy. People have been prevented from knowing …

Marianne Lavelle For National Geographic News Published June 22, 2011 This story is part of a special series that explores energy issues. For more, visit The Great Energy Challenge. One of Indonesia’s most ardent rain forest protection activists is in what may seem an unlikely position: Spearheading a project to produce biofuel from trees. But tropical forest scientist Willie Smits, …

“To manufacture modern solar cells, you have to do extensive semiconductor processing,” Fisher said. “All we would need are lenses to focus the light and a fiber to guide it. Glass works for both. It’s already made in bulk, and it doesn’t require as much processing. Transparent ceramics might be even better.”

Zero Point Energy has been known to be the lowest possible energy level that a device can contain. It is the ground state or the natural state of all things. Within a perfect recovery system, the energy above this zero-point level is being returned to commence useful work either within the system or for use in another system. Many scientists …

The result was a so-called “mixing entropy battery.” Alternating the flow of river water and sea water through the battery produces electricity to charge it. The process also can be reversed to remove salt from ocean water to produce drinking water. The scientists describe the battery a very promising potential addition to the ranks of solar, wind, and other renewable energy, and are working on modifications to make the device a commercial reality.

T J Madigan asked: The history of hybrid cars is immersed in controversy. Not so much for the product itself, but for the technology it uses. Is it old like the conception of wheel itself, or is it a recent idea, as recent as the embryonic stem cell technology? First of all, a hybrid car is a vehicle that uses …

Peter Griffiths asked: An electric car is, quite simply, an automobile that is powered by electricity. An electric car has an electric motor and a controller for energising the motor. The energy is stored in its rechargeable batteries, which are re-energized by household electricity. That the electric car is 170 years old may sound surprising, but electric cars predate automobiles …
