How does alternative energy lead to lower oil prices?

May 21st, 2009

Alternative energy is energy…like electricity.

Oil isn't used for electricity – or is it? I can't think straight right now, I'm so confused.

So if we have more alternative energy, why does that reduce our dependance on oil?

Thanks
…You didn't answer the question. Why is there less demand for oil (thus, creating lower oil prices) if there is more alternative energy?

Please help!

Can wind power pay my electric bill?

May 20th, 2009

Can I place a wind generator on my property that only converts dc into ac and runs it back into the grid?What i mean is can i do it without using a bit of the electricity myself.No Batteries,no connection to my power other than sending it back into the grid.

Is there a way to hook up a solar power panel to a small appliance?

May 18th, 2009

i was wondering if i could take one of those cheap solar panals that you can power you car battery with, and somehow hook it up to a microwave, or coffee maker or something like that?

Is there any other easier way to do this.

The whole goal is to not use electricity.

Nanosolar 1GW Solar Power Film Coater

May 13th, 2009

World’s first 1GW solar production tool. Breakthrough in the production of solar electricity cells: Simply printed (using ink with semiconductor nanoparticles). Printing is a non-vacuum coating process that eliminates the need for a high-vacuum chamber as it is conventionally used. Printing is 200 times more capital efficient: A twenty times slower high-vacuum tool costs ten times as much. More info see Nanosolar blog at www.nanosolar.com/blog3

Q. How the electricity is produced by using wind power?

May 13th, 2009

Please describe in details how do the whole mechanisms work? How it is developed? What apparatus is required? How the wind turbine is constructed and how it works? Explain me all questions by using 3d figures or images or video if available. Please guide me in the easiest way as much as possible; I want to make electricity for my home by using wind power or wind turbines what should I do? How can I achieve or construct it myself?
