  • One of the first applications for fuel cells based on their advantageous properties was in the US space program.
  • Compared to IC engines, fuel cells have practically no polluting exhaust like NOx and sulphides.
  • It is generally acknowledged that the feasibility and durability of fuel cells in automobiles has been proven. The major focus now is on cost reduction

history

shared by dpurdy on 03 Nov 11 - No Cached
  • The best known early fuel cell experiments were performed in 1842 by the British physicist and lawyer, Sir William R. Grove (1811-1896)
  • Due to easily accessible and large amounts of oil and the invention of the combustion engine (Carl Friedrich Benz and Gottlieb Daimler), fuel cells were forgotten until the middle of the 20th century. In the US Apollo space programme, fuel cells exhibited their first renaissance in the 1960’s. 
  • Fuel cell development has been slowed down by a fear of hydrogen as a fuel. It is commonly believed that hydrogen is an extremely explosive and dangerous gas. Most of this belief was founded in 1937, when the hydrogen-filled zeppelin “Hindenburg” caught fire and crashed in Lakehurst, USA.

shared by dpurdy on 03 Nov 11 - No Cached
  • Ocean waves are a tertiary form of solar energy, in that unequal heating of the Earth’s surface generates wind, and wind blowing over water generates waves. Despite the fact that nearly 75% of the Earth’s surface is covered with water, waves are a largely unexplored source of energy, compared with the progress that has been made in harnessing the sun and wind.

Wind Program: Frequently Asked Questions about Wind Energy - 2 views

Wind cons

shared by jack wells on 03 Nov 11 - No Cached
  • What is wind energy? Wind energy (or wind power) refers to the process by which wind turbines convert the movement of wind into electricity. Winds are caused by the uneven heating of the atmosphere by the sun, the irregularities of the earth's surface, and rotation of the earth. Humans use this wind flow for many purposes: sailing boats, pumping water, and also generating electricity. Wind turbines convert the kinetic energy of the moving wind into electricity.
  • Birds and bats are occasionally killed in collisions with wind turbines. Like any form of development, wind projects can also negatively impact wildlife by altering habitat. Over the past two decades, the impact of wind development on birds has been greatly reduced by improvements in turbine design and particularly through improved project and turbine siting.
  • dpurdy on 03 Nov 11
     
    How do wind turbines work? A wind turbine works like a fan, but in reverse: instead of using electricity to make wind, like a fan, wind turbines use wind to make electricity. The wind turns the turbine's blades, which spin a shaft connected to a generator to make electricity.

geothermal potential future

shared by dpurdy on 07 Nov 11 - Cached
  • Engineered geothermal systems (EGS) are based on a related principle, but they work even in parts of the world that are not volcanically active, by drilling thousands of metres underground to mimic the design of natural steam or hot-water reservoirs. Wells are bored and pathways are created inside hot rocks, into which cold water is injected. The water heats up as it circulates and is then brought back to the surface, where the heat is extracted to generate electricity. Because the Earth gets hotter the deeper you drill, EGS could expand the reach of geothermal power enormously and provide access to a virtually inexhaustible energy resource.
  • dpurdy on 07 Nov 11
     
    Future method is to drill very deep and inject water. THis will give us many more sites where we can develop geothermal energy.,

solar history

shared by dpurdy on 20 Sep 13 - No Cached
  • 90 years ago - in 1921 Albert Einstein was awarded a Nobel Prize for explanation of the PV-effect. 70 years ago - in 1941, the first silicon monocrystalline solar cell was constructed. 60 years ago - in 1951, the first germanium solar cells have been made.
  • 1958, the same company introduced a solar cell with 9 % efficiency. The first radiation-proof silicon solar cell was produced for the purposes of space technology in the same year. On 17th March, the first satellite powered by solar cells, Vanguard I, was launched. The system ran continuously for 8 years.

  • Solar Energy comes from Sun. Sun is a hot ball of Hydrogen & Helium. Due to fission reaction of Hydrogen molecules, energy is emitted which is known as Solar Energy.
  • Solar thermal energy transfers heat directly from the sun to heat air or water for residential or commercial use.
  • Solar energy comes from the lowest point of the sun. The sun bears a constant stream of thermonuclear explosions as hydrogen atoms are merged into helium atoms. The Sun is like a humongous power station that constantly does a reaction that lets out light.

  • Organic matter is one such source. Materials like corn and soybeans have oil extracts that can be converted to ethanol or biodiesel
  • more sustainable than petroleum, meaning they can be regrown and remain productive with less negative impact on our ecosystem.
  • Some biofuels that provide more long-term benefits may prove too expensive to pursue
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • Runge estimated that in the United States alone, some 1.3 billion tons of cellulose material could be harvested for biofuel use. Cellulose is basically fiber, and can be found in things ranging from switchgrass to trees such as hybrid poplar and willow.
  • 1. Cellulose
  • 2. Algal Oil
  • Because algae are grown in water, they overcome one of the major problems faced by other biofuels -- competition for land with agricultural crops.
  • 3. Corn

    The U.S. wind energy industry is continuing to pay off for those who have invested in it, both in terms of power generated as well as manufacturing and jobs. This is according to a pair of studies the DOE has made public. More than 13 GW of wind energy capacity was added onto the U.S.

  • Europe has a long history of employing tidal forces to generate power, and tide mills dating back to the Middle Ages can be found across the continent. A dam with a sluice was constructed spanning a tidal inlet, or a section of a tidal estuary was turned into a reservoir.

  • It was used in the watermills along the shores of England during the Roman age and also used along the shores of France and Spain. This period was around 900 AD. The water rising from the tides was impounded in barrages and it was allowed to flow through waterwheels and other energy capturing devices thus capturing the energy and converting it into useful work used to grind grains and produce flour. The first tidal mill in the US was built in Salem, MA in 1635.
  • In recent history it was not until the 1960s that a tidal energy plant was built in France, on the estuary of La Rance, to capture the tidal energy and produce electricity. The plant has been operating for the past 50 or so years producing electricity without missing a tide. The second tidal energy plant was built about 20 years later in 1982 in Nova Scotia, Canada.
  • Water is much denser than air and this means that the tidal energy turbines would be much smaller than the wind energy turbines needed for the production of the same amount of electricity.

hydrogen economy co2 pollution

shared by geczyluk99 on 24 Sep 13 - No Cached
  • There’s a much cheaper way to produce hydrogen: spray steam on white-hot coals and out comes mostly hydrogen gas (40 percent) and carbon monoxide (50 percent), a mixture known appropriately as “water gas.” It’s the least expensive way to make hydrogen. Unfortunately, the carbon monoxide produced along with it is highly poisonous. To extract the last bit of energy, the carbon monoxide can be burned, and that turns it into the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide.
  • Electric cars powered by hydrogen fuel cells don’t produce greenhouse-enhancing carbon dioxide. But producing hydrogen does-and if we want to reduce our petroleum dependence, we’re going to have to reconcile ourselves to that fact.
