[ad] Ocean wave energy is captured directly from surface waves or from pressure fluctuations below the surface. Waves are caused by the wind blowing over the surface of the ocean. In many areas of the world, the wind blows with enough consistency and force to provide continuous waves. There is tremendous energy in the ocean waves. Wave power devices extract energy directly from the surface motion of ocean waves or from pressure fluctuations below the surface. Wave power varies considerably in different parts ... Read More

This article shows a high quality video animation explaining in an easy to understand demonstration and language how wind power actually works. Great and usefull high level information for the excited newcomer to wind power. [ad] 1.) Modern wind turbines start generating electricity at a wind speed of approximately 9mph. As wind speed increases so does electrical output. At storm force over 55mph, they cut out to prevent damage to the turbine 2.) A Yaw Drive turns the turbine to face directly into the wind. ...

This part 1 of our comprehensive 'Scientific Series' covers all aspects of 'Energy Storage' which is required in the process of harnessing energy generated from Wind Power and Solar Power. [ad] ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM Electricity is more versatile in use because it is a highly ordered form of energy that can be converted efficiently into other forms. For example, it can be converted into mechanical form with efficiency near 100 percent or into heat with 100 percent efficiency. The heat energy, on the other hand, cannot be converted into ...

[ad] Alternative Energy - SOLAR POWER (solar panels) [ad] Solar energy is one the most resourceful sources of energy for the future. One of the reasons for this is that the total energy we receive each year from the sun is around 35,000 times the total energy used by man. However, about 1/3 of this energy is either absorbed by the outer atmosphere or reflected back into space (a process called Albedo). Solar energy is presently being used on a smaller scale in furnaces for homes ... Read More

[ad] Alternative Energy - The Facts - Tidal Energy - Part 5 TIDAL ENERGY Even the power of the tides can be harnessed to produce electricity. Similar to the more conventional hydroelectric dams, the tidal process utilizes the natural motion of the tides to fill reservoirs, which are then slowly discharged through electricity-producing turbines. The former USSR produced 300 MW in its Lumkara plant using this method. Advantages • Tides rise and fall every day in a very consistent pattern. • Economic life of a tidal power plant. A plant is ...

GEOTHERMAL ENERGY [ad] Geothermal energy is an alternative energy source, although it is not resourceful enough to replace more than a minor amount of the future's energy needs. Geothermal energy is obtained from the internal heat of the planet and can be used to generate steam to run a steam turbine. This in turn generates electricity, which is a very useful form of energy.   There are many Geothermal hotspots which are volcanic features found all around the world. Basically a hotspot is an area of ... Read More

[ad] Concentrated Solar Power Systems use concentrated solar radiation as a high temperature energy source to produce electrical power and drive chemical reactions. Concentrating solar power (CSP) systems use lenses or mirrors and tracking systems to focus a large area of sunlight into a small beam. The concentrated light is then used as a heat source for a conventional power plant or is concentrated onto photovoltaic surfaces. The first recorded use of such a technique was in 212 BC when Archimedes is said to ... Read More
