How Solar Cells Are Manufactured

Solar power is being touted as one of the solutions to the energy needs of a hungry world. This brings up the rather fundamental question of how solar cells are actually manufactured.

UK Domestic Energy Price Guide

So what’s the best way to handle your amenities? We all know that we should be shopping around for the best gas and electricity prices but the array of price plans and offers available can confuse and dishearten even the most dedicated money saver. Yet switching to a more appropriate tariff can save you hundreds of pounds each year.

Hydrogen and the Fuel Cell of Tomorrow

Any discussion of renewable energy platforms always manages to wind its way back to the concept of using hydrogen for fuel. More specifically, in the form of fuel cells.

Super Ball Piston Motors Are Pollution-Less And Fuel-Less But What Can We Use Them For?

The Online Think Tank has run across a very interesting new concept and all though this is such a common occurrence you are probably saying; that makes sense. But this time the concept came in from an inventor named Richard Walker. It is a Super Ball Piston Motor, which is completely Pollution-less and Fuel-less, but what can we use them for?

Energy Conservation: Why It's So Important

As someone that has to pay bills each month, you already know the importance of energy conservation. There is no way for you to have not noticed that your bills have been increasing. It has happened and is one thing that you just should consider doing. But, energy conservation is not always something that is on our minds. If you find yourself only thinking about it when the bills for the month arrive, then you may be missing the boat.

Vibrational Energy Conservation Strategies and Theory For Aviation Discussed

Theoretical aviation strategies can get to be rather interesting to contemplate, even more so when you throw into the mixture a little future science with regards to vibrational energy conservation.

Alternative Energy Nonsense

The Romans and Greeks built illustrious temples to various Gods not only as places of awe-inspiring worship but also to collect money from tourists and pilgrims. The cult was necessary to keep the illiterate peasants awed, taxes high, and money in the government’s coffers. In our times the Vatican and Mecca are exemplars of such a policy but they are dwarfed by the massive industry and copious subsidization which exists around the earth-cult.

LED Lighting as an Alternative Energy Source

LED lighting such as LED panel light sources, used in several experiments on plant growth and plant reproduction, are being discovered as possible alternatives to other kinds of lights as well. There are many, many advantages to using LED lights as much as possible. LED lights are already being used for more purposes than you may think.

Aussie Drought, Agricultural and Power Problem Solved

Is there a way to make it rain in the outback or near the coastline in Australia? The drought issues are so grave that agriculture is suffering and water restrictions have been placed in many regions at Level III. Can we develop giant desalination projects, which are self-powered from Ocean Wave Generation Plants? The Online Think Tank believes it is potentially possible with the right performance partners.

Alternative Energy Innovators; Do Not Kill the Messenger

Not long ago I was discussing the use of a new wind generator system, which would be a huge project in a constantly windy canyon and this giant project would span across the entire canyon. The other day he emailed the Online Think Tank to look at this project, we rendered our findings and discussed the reality of the permitting, EIR legality and bureaucracy barriers. Unfortunately, upon hearing this he went ballistic on us. After calming down he profusely apologized, I sent him an email back;

Wind Power Grows Massively In US in 2006

Much of the discussion of renewable energy sounds great, but what are the practical numbers? Well, wind power started to show tangible results in 2006 in the US.
