Foreign Oil producers have us "Over A Barrel". Solar power is needed more than ever before and it is time for us to step up to the plate and bring it into the spotlight. It has the potential of alleviating many of the issues that are making headline news today.
In order to be effective, solar power must be implemented on a
massive scale. And fortunately because it works well as a distributed energy source that does not mean it will require a massive infrastructure, its beneficial effect can begin to be infused into our current energy environment today. But in order to orchestrate the scale of change necessary, government must get involved.
There are many reasons solar energy is a particularly good fit right now. It is a mature technology and has already been implemented to meet thousands of energy requirements. Because it does work well as a distributed energy source it can immediately begin to dot rooftops, greatly reducing the need for damaging fossil fuels. Technological advancements in solar energy production have the potential to drive down the costs. This web site will look at all of these factors and show why solar energy needs to be adopted now!
Many critical issues, such as the environment, need to be acted on today
to make a better tomorrow for our children. But these changes will not happen on
their own, and not with the backing of politicians or celebrities, it will take the majority of people standing behind them and sending a clear message for change to take place. It is hoped that in spending time on this site you will see the need to take action and make your concern for adopting solar and other environmentally friendly technologies known to your government. We need a unified "VOICE".
We will examine the technologies avaiable to solar and alternate energy solutions. There are few topics that are more central or more politically and socially charged than clean energy these days.
This web site is an attempt to give an impartial, unbiased and objective view of the solar energy,
hydrogen controversy. We will look at the good, the bad and the ridiculous in this field and with your help
attempt to bring clear objective thinking to this subject.
We will
"do the numbers" and show that present technology can provide economic solutions
now.
We will look at the technologies that can be implemented immediately, such
as solar assisted residential power and those that will need development time like
Hydrogen storage and transportation.
We will attempt to report new breakthroughs in a timely manner and offer a means
to discuss them.
The things that make solar energy so desirable (that it is free, plentiful and environmentally friendly) also make
it a perfect solution to provide Hydrogen to empower our homes and vehicles.
The major stumbling block to Hydrogen technology gaining relevance is that the cost of conversion is high and it is
currently made primarily from fossil fuels, with their damaging effects on the environment. But solar energy can provide
limitless free Hydrogen for power and with no environmental harm. The technology for a solar Hydrogen system exists now. On the solar side
it has been in operation for years. On the Hydrogen side there are (very expensive) working prototypes in existence now also. Together they can provide
the bulk of the energy needs for households in this country,
