The amount of solar energy the Earth receives in 40 minutes is equivalent to global energy consumption for a year, so it’s no surprise that solar photovoltaic cells have become the world’s fastest growing energy source. Whether you’re inclined to do your part for mother earth, or just want to lower your energy bills, a solar [...]

Something like this should be done in the United States. But it will not. Big oil has too much money and can buy too many votes. They block legislation like this in the U.S. The U.S. who invested solar panels and started the solar power industry continues to fall further and further behind the rest of the world. Big news for the home solar industry in Australia. A $7,000 discount will be given to anyone who installs a 1.5 kW (9 panel) solar system thanks to the Australian passed legislation

PARK RIDGE, N.J., July 31, 2009 — Capturing the look and feel of life aboard a spacecraft on a six-year mission through the solar system requires imagination, creativity and a flexible camera system. The production team behind the new TV series “Defying Gravity” used all three, including Sony’s F35 high-definition camera system. According to producers for the show, premiering August 2 on the ABC television network, the F35 camera and Sony HDCAM SR™ cassettes delivered “a rich, clean quality” a

Energy direct from the SunA Solar power system uses the suns light and transforms it into a source of energy. In remote areas solar energy has become a reliable counterpart to conventional power sources. It has even been utilised out in space. Solar power systems are used widely in lighting, homes, cooking and architectural programs. [...]

by Michael Edwards W hen doing the research for a article on new green products, I was unaware of many of the different ways to convert the energy of the sun into electrical power. I have written about solar cell or photovoltaic cell systems, so let’s look at another type of solar energy system. The Stirling engine goes back to the early 1800’s, when steam was the order of the day. Steam was used to power factories, trains, and many types of work that required lots of horsepower. However,
