Energy Crisis or ACESS to ENERGY Crisis – Solar Training Solves Problems

Welcome back, dedicated reader! Thanks for visiting.

Offshore wind farms might just be the answer along with solar panels on the roof of every house in California, Florida, Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada… well, you get the picture.

Giant wind turbines, larger than a Boeing 747, turning all the time in the shallow waters off the coast where winds blow an average of 50 mph all the time could generate gigawatts (lots) of electricity.   (Did anyone mention that these things have to be built, installed and maintained?  I mean, that sounds like new jobs to me.)

Wind Turbines Look Fly Wind turbines are moving up in the world.  They’re artistic works of art, silent and being installed in Chicago, the windy city, to generate electricity for building complexes.  Without going into too much detail, look at the photos, watch the video, learn about wind energy.  Get some wind training. ...
3. Grid Tied Wind Power is the key to Powering Our World Wind power is obviously a growing area of renewable energy, but for all its benefits and implications wind power still is a little unwieldy. As wind power changes with often unstable wind patterns, the power produced also carries this degree of instability and fluctuation. Larger grid systems, that link...
