The batch solar heater is the third style I’d like to cover.
Over a century ago, people would paint their water tanks black to absorb the heat from the sun. A simple solar heater in its most basic form.
Nowadays, the batch solar heater works wonders for…

residential water heating in warm countries.
For Canadians, the solar batch heater […]

Vaccum (or “evacuated”) tube solar collectors are another common form of solar collectors. They are more expensive than the glazed flat-plate style, yet most efficient. They are excellent for the more colder north parts of Canada. They will produce temperatures from 50-90C.
These vaccum tube solar collectors can be applied to…

heating both domestic and commercial hot […]

Solar water heaters are becoming more and more popular in the realm of solar heating, so I’ll start with these. Solar water heaters are great for your hot water tank and heat exchangers.
You can chose between 1) glazed flat plate collectors, 2) batch collectors or 3) vaccum tube collectors.
For now, lets look at glazed flat-plate […]

Most solar energy facts may not be new to you. For example, it creates no emissions - global warming friendly, it is renewable, it’s basically free once the initial costs have been recovered and theres virtually an endless supply (for about 20 billion years).
There were some solar energy facts that were new to me regarding […]

Is home solar power the next big wave?
Hey, if it saves us money and the environment at the same time - what a super alternative.
I’ve been checking out home solar power products, and I don’t think at this time…

I should refer you - the reader - to any one specific company, simply because I don’t […]

The cost of energy efficiency as it turns out is proving to be quite profitible in the job sector.
Much to my likeness - and predictions I might add, energy efficiency investment growth potential will create - get this -
four times as much employment as those…

in our conventional energy production.
What a beautiful thought to tell your […]

Wind energy, as I’ve just discovered is surging by 40 per cent annually in Europe. It is also being actively promoted by the U.S. Wind energy is apparently now the fastest…

growing power source in the world. It is reported that in some areas, wind energy is now just as financially competitive as with electricity […]

Global warming does come with certain complexities especially when considering air travel.
Jet fuel bonds with oxygen (O2) in our air which forms carbon dioxide (CO2). Jet fuel also releases nitrous oxides, soot, sulphate and water vapour. Because of these emissions, they form “contrails”. Those are the “harmless” white airplane trails we see in the […]

Reading about flex-fuel reminds me that the US gov’t really must believe it’s citizens are stupid.
Tell me, how will it be possible to keep up with the demand of fuel for vehicles? Corn crop growth will never keep up to flex-fuel.
And with poor mileage - getting less than current…

mileaage standards is truly a pathetic […]

Solar power and how it works: On a sunny day, every square meter of the earths surface receives 1000 watts of energy.
If we were to capture that energy we’d all benefit with free electricity from solar power and how it works - pretty tantilizing.
You’ve seen and probably used a calculator that works with no batteries, […]
