SolarWindow(TM) technologies which enable see-thru windows to generate electricity by 'spraying' their glass surfaces with New Energy's electricity-generating coatings. These solar coatings are less than 1/10th the thickness of 'thin' films and make use of the world's smallest functional solar cells, shown to successfully produce electricity in a published peer-reviewed study in the Journal of Renewable and Sustainable Energy of the American Institute of Physics.

Celeste Yates asked: The latest report of BWEA (British Wind Energy Association has stated that Wind Power is currently the fastest growing energy technology. They are aiming to have 5% of the UK’s power requirements coming from onshore wind farms, by 2010. The UK Government is looking have another 10% of the energy coming from other renewable resources, by the …

It could well be the case that the fitting of Solar Energy Panels is the first step on a eco positive route for a domestic customer, so surely this could well be an opportune time at which to mull over their life style. While it could not be essential to go as far as absolute self-sufficiency, there could well be …

While the family market is being served with green energy answers, in particular Solar Energy Panels and wind turbines, these two answers have advantages and disadvantages that can change suitability for the domestic customer. The Solar Energy Panels work by converting sunlight into electricity and the more sunlight there is, the more electricity is created. Wind turbines need to be …

There may be other process involved, for example if the roof is not strong enough to take the weight of the Solar Energy Panels, then the home owner may find that the Solar Energy Prices rise rather to allow for strengthening the roof.

John J Marsh asked: Wind energy has been found to be a good alternative to fossil fuels. It is unfathomable and hence renewable. It is clean. It does not propagate greenhouse emissions during its conversion to wind power. The solar energy reaching the earth is not uniform for all places on the earth. The equator receives more solar energy than …

Dane Bergen asked: Wind power energy is one of the clean energy resources that have been widely used all over the world. The report says that this can overcome the electricity demands of high economy countries like US. One of the main reasons that increases the utilization and development of wind power energy is its purity. It does not produce …

It might well be the case that the fitting of Solar Energy Panels is the first step on a eco positive adventure for a home user, so surely this might well be a good point at which to mull over their life style. While it might not be necessary to go as far as full self-sufficiency, there might well be …

Chris Floate asked: When it comes to selecting a wind turbine, things are never as straight forward as they initially seem. There is a plethora of machinery coming into the market with fittings and features claiming to be better than the next wind turbine so how do you go about selecting the right turbine for you. In this article we …

Jeremy McAllister asked: More and more people are well aware of the dangers fossil fuels pose to the world, which is why it’s no big surprise people are turning to alternative energy sources such as solar and wind power to “power” their homes. After all, solar and wind energy sources are great options to saving the environment as well as …

NEW INITIATIVE TO BRING IN TRILLION DOLLAR BOND MARKETS TO FINANCE THE LOW CARBON ECONOMY BRUSSELS, 15 March 2011 – The Climate Bonds Initiative announced the count down to the world’s first Climate Bond issuance – worth a quarter of a billion US dollars – with the release of the draft Compliance Standards today that will assure the environmental integrity …

It could be assumed that paying the Solar Energy Prices to have a set of Solar Energy Panels installed would be all that is essential to utilise the free sunlight that is available, but what about the appliances that are used in the house? It must be useful to look at the energy efficient appliances market, especially the energy saving …

Shaye Michaels asked: Wind is amongst the neatest renewable energy resources accessible to us. Most people are not aware about the fact that wind energy is the fastest prospering energy sector. As you know, wind is an indirect adaptation of solar power. Various surfaces on the Earth respond distinctly to being hit by sunrays, mainly with context to the heat. …

Erick Juanich asked: What is wind power? Wind power is the result of the air movement caused by the uneven heating of the earth’s surface, this uneven heating in the earth’s surface creates the wind cycle, and there are two patterns in the wind cycle the day and the night cycle. Harness the power of nature for the benefit of …

The demand for oil products is on the rise and the countries are forced to produce more crude oil barrels to be supplied to the world market. It is a non-renewable resource and the humans are exerting over pressure on Mother Nature. It is very dangerous to exhaust a resource that cannot be regained in the short run. It is …

Joshua Vadney asked: As we move forward into a world where “going green” is becoming a major movement, we need to be aware of our options for “greening” our own lives. Providing enough power for ourselves in order to be able to go about our daily lives is essential if we wish to preserve the environment and maintain our current …

alternative energy for small business Environmentalism is the strong topic of discussion these days and in this context solar power has undertaken huge value Many people feel that the human race is having a negative effect on the environment because of how much pollution we put out by using the conventional power production that we use on a daily basis …

Michelle Bery asked: Wind energy is an environmentally inert, clean, and inexhaustible source of electric power that, as it turns out, is really just another form of solar energy. The sun creates wind by its uneven heating of the planet’s atmosphere. It’s moderated by the earth’s rotation and irregularities in its surface. The planet’s terrain, water bodies, and vegetation then …

Imagine traveling the entirety of Australia in a lightweight vehicle that occasionally uses a kite for propulsion. A kite! Normally, trips across the rugged terrain are done in heavy duty vehicles with an abundance of spare parts and gasoline. Dirk Gion and Stefan Simmerer had a different plan.

Affordable Solar & Wind Lars Henderson asked The rising price of power has hit everyone in recent years and especially recent months Homeowners everywhere have seen their power bills increase and often have had to cut back spending on other things because power isn’t very affordable The answer is affordable solar and wind energy systems The power that you use …
