Make Money With Renewable Energy
Solar power is great, don't you think? What a great way to help the environment, and make money on renewable energy. The energy used behind the electric power supply in most of the homes throughout the world is made of fossil fuels. It takes millions of years for these fossil fuels to get converted into crude oil. Fossil Fuel is not a fuel source that not only pollutes the environment, creates huge problems for our atmosphere with air pollution, it is also not renewable at a rate which meets demand.
Renewable energy is the only solution and could well be a profitable solution!
The best way to get power by wind and solar energy, is with readily available parts. For example with a wind power configuration, you will need a wind power generator, which converts wind energy into electric. With solar power, it is with solar panels, which converts light energy into electric. The good news is that even though it can require an initial investment, over the long term the electric works out to be cheap, and will give good results. What are these benefits? Reducing your electrical bill is just one benefit. Don't consider becoming a millionaire this way, but you may be able to sell some of your excess energy back to the electric company. Good things are happening in the area of alternative energy. Renewable energies are being used in electric companies. Even homeowners are benefiting from renewable energy. I recently became aware that statistics say that the amount of energy transmitted to earth by the sun in an hour is equivalent to the amount of electricity used by the earth in one year. This is huge and the more people that use it, the better for our environment. Grants are now available from the government for eco-friendly home power stations. Even better, every day you use this method of energy, you get a return that will eventually yield pure profit. Think about what it would be like to constantly keep on all of the lights, the TV and household appliances at no cost at all!
Renewable energy can do all of that, and it has a positive impact on the environment.
This method of money making may not fetch you huge sum of money but the fact that it doesn't affect the environment in anyway will certainly attract you. So what do you need? The main cost comes down to the main parts. For example with solar power it is solar panels, whereas with wind energy it is wind power generators. The cost is relative to your need. So more energy requirements will require either bigger solar panels, or more of them. With wind power generators, it could be a bigger generator or again owning several smaller ones.

To answer your primary question, it just needs to be less expensive than fossil fuels…oil in particular.
1. Very few “direct” renewable sources are available non-stop. A few would be tidal power, geothermal power and hydroelectric power. There are many “indirect” sources, such as biofuels (ethanol, biodiesel, methane) which are the process of extracting energy from materials.
2. Nothing is really practical (at this point) to compete. Oil is still too cheap.
3. Storage either in liquid fuel form or conversion to electricity offers the two easiest ways to move large amounts of energy.
4. There’s many viable technologies available today, but they are under continuous refinement to make them better, more efficient, less costy, and ultimately, more competitive
5. This one is always fun. Wind and hydroelectric don’t pollute, but one is blamed for killing migratory birds and the other is hated for destroying habitats surrounding rivers. Both offer the most promise as the next best source of energy compared to fossil fuels.
6. Well, this depends on whether the consumer is in an energy rich or energy poor area. If you live in an area where there’s ample sun, good wind, and/or rivers you can dam up, then you’re living close to where you can produce it. If you can’t produce enough energy from the sources immediately available to you, then you will either need to conserve more or import it.
7. Politicians are likely only going to back solutions that prove to be overwhelmingly beneficial to their constituents. You will get corn belt pols that back ethanol for the obvious positive economic impact that it will have on their areas. Likewise, wind in areas that it could prove beneficial.
There is no one magic bullet for every energy need, that needs to be understood. Some sources will win over others, based on the application and its availability. But until oil gets more expensive (like over $100 per barrel) then most alternative sources just simply can’t economically compete with today’s renewable harnessing technology.
No.
That is why Obama said:
“Electric Rates will Necessarily Skyrocket”
Unfortunately, the “American people” are not the primary concern of the majority of Congressmen and women. You should look to the special interests of Corporate America (especially big oil, big auto, big agra, big pharma) for your answer.
Their energy bills would skyrocket under this proposal.

What does it take to make Renewable Energy Economically viable?
Workable energy resource requirements, Independent of being Renewable:
1)Energy available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and 365 days a year.
2)At retail level directly compete with energy resources for today’s activity – if not, sellable spin-off benefits to subsidize the cost.
3)Transportable
4)Technology available.
5)No more environmentally harmful than competing energy resources.
6)Supplies close enough to consumer that distribution losses due to capacity doesn’t become an issue.
7)Politicians that back any solution be able to explain it to their constituents.
The area below the question wasn’t answering the question, but the breath of the question.
I’ve heard you are brilliantly creative. Economically there is at least 1 item more disastrous than investing in renewable energy infrastructure, not having a replacement for fossil fuel. I don’t wish to taint your creativity with my solution. The governments have tryed thinking small with little addition to supply. I’ve gone the opposite route to change the economics of Renewable Energy.
Please be as creative as the person was that during WW II came up with running the exhaust through aircraft feul tanks to mitigate possibily of explosition when shot.
soils, renewable energy for human needs, and survivorship curve?
Regarding soils, which statement is true?
A. Clay topsoils tend to be deficient in minerals
B. Agriculture is most likely to flourish where there are loam topsoils
C. Topsoils with more humus tend to be less subject to erosion
D. Loam and clay soils are more prone to leaching than are sandy soils
What source of renewable energy for human needs could supply 4/5 of the U.S. requirement in the immediate future?
A. Coal
B. Wind farms
C. Solar cells
D. Nuclear power
Humans in the United States exhibit a ___ survivorship curve.
A. Type 1
B. Type 2
C. Type 3
D. Type 4
Why is it most of the time when the house tries to pass a bill that would help American people its blocked?
Take for example the energy bill that was just blocked. It required increased MPG standards for vehicles. It would have rolled back tax cuts for oil companies (like they need any help). Also, it would have started to push us towards oil independence because of renewable energy requirements? In conclussion> it seems like anything that doesn’t benefit corporations profit is always blocked. Why did it get this way and why don’t people try to change this.
Why did California’s Proposition 7 fail for renewable energy?
Specifically, Proposition 7 would require utilities to get 20% of their power from renewable sources — meaning solar, wind, geothermal, biomass and small hydroelectric generation — by 2010. The state already has such a mandate in place, but it only applies to investor-owned utilities; under this measure, municipal utilities such as the L.A. Department of Water and Power also would be brought on board. The requirement bumps to 40% renewable power by 2020 and to 50% by 2025.
I thought that renewable energy was a good thing? Isn’t this what Obama has been promising?
Are the mandates in the Cape and Trade bill reasonable for energy production?
Will our power plants be able to meet the renewable energy requirements which it would impose?
