A major deterrent to the development of solar power generation, is the ability to store on a large-scale, the electricity produced during the day for use at night. The only true options to this point are to use solar photovoltaics (PV’s) only when it’s sunny or to charge batteries. The charging of batteries [...]

SUSTAINABLE ENERGY
Green Energy’s liberal definitions must contain some elements of sustainable energy, which in turn must contain elements of energy efficiency and renewable energy. However, Green Energy’s more stringent definitions balk at the provisions of sustainable energy fuels, that produce some pollution into the environment. This fuel production and its eventual transformation into electrical energy, cannot [...]
SOLAR HEATING SYSTEMS
Solar Heating Systems are an example of Second Generation Technology paying dividends in households today. Tons-of-thousands of homes heat their pools and water, using solar thermal collectors in a fluid system, at very low cost. These domestic systems use the sun to heat–or additionally heat–water, saving the energy cost to do it electrically, or by [...]
THIRD GENERATION GREEN TECHNOLOGIES
These renewable energy technologies, which are in some stage of testing, are (see Reference A): Ocean Energy (tidal movement) Hot Dry Rock Geothermal Energy Advanced Solar Thermal Power Stations Biomass Gasification Biorefinery Nanotechnology in Solar Power Panels Research Design and Development OCEAN ENERGY Ocean energy is the harnessing of waves and/or tidal movement of seawater, [...]
