Energy - How Come We Need More and More?

While energy can neither be created nor destroyed, we need constantly more of it. See what happens to it and how we can make better use of it without sacrificing our way of life.

Oh Those High Energy Prices

In 2003 I wrote an article about high gas prices in North America. Here we are on the cusp of 2007 and the price at the pump is vastly higher. This is not a surprising turn of events when we look at all the reasons for the high gas prices we are paying at the pump and on our heating bills.

Ethanol, Biodiesel & Betamax Videos!

Ethanol is widely touted as THE replacement for fossil fuel. However there are reasons why this should be seriously reconsidered, there are other better fuels and solutions available.

Thoughts On Nuclear Power as a Source of Emission Free Energy

For decades, the terms nuclear power have sent feelings of fear in those hearing them. We have all been influenced by the movies and reports on the devastating impact that nuclear power can have on our Nation. However, nuclear power can also be a positive thing for our Nation, offering as an alternate source of emission free energy. Used properly, nuclear reactions can be used to generate energy in the forms of heat and electricity.

Renewable Energy and Solar Power

Powering everything with solar energy isn't possible just yet, since the UK doesn't produce enough sunlight to do this.

A Look At Some Of The More Promising Alternative Fuels

With so many countries cutting back on energy use, there are many governments looking for alternative sources of fuel, especially with the rapidly climbing gas prices. The US is working harder than ever to get other sources of power onto the market.

How Many People Are Using Solar Panels?

With the renewed interest in alternative power sources, solar power is becoming more popular. So, what are the figures on its use?

Highlights on a Few Reputable Biodiesel Makers

Biodiesel has recently been recognized as a viable alternative energy source and fuel additive by several international groups. Its many advantages over conventional petroleum based diesels include being environmentally friendly due to causing no harmful emissions, as well as being readily biodegradable.

Show me an Energy Strategy that Makes Sense

Many environmentalists are concerned with global warming and they say the Planet is doomed and yet I asked them what can we do? Some of them say we need to shut down all of our energy generation because we're polluting the air.

New High Efficiency Solar Cell Technology Rocks!

A manufacturer of cutting edge solar technology in Albuquerque, NM has designed some unbelievably efficient new solar cells, which will change satellite solar cell technologies and Mars Rover type vehicles forever. Indeed it will also have a huge impact here on Earth.

Turn Bacteria in the Sea into Energy for You and Me!

We have needs in our nation to increase our fresh water supplies and we must shore up the supply and demand gap. We also have Alternative Energy Issues and Initiatives to see thru, which also make sense. What if we desalinate sea water and use the bacteria to make energy to run power up the system and the left over co-generation from this scheme to sell back to the Power Grid. How so you ask?

Converging of Alternative Energies and Water Supplies

In the United States like all counties in the world we must be concerned with our fresh water supplies and since we are also pushing alternative energies why not combine them say researchers, scientists and academics. Indeed this makes sense and we also need better conservation of our water supplies too.

Wind Energy – Germany

When many people think of German, they think of a large oil based industrial nation. In truth, Germany is a leader in wind energy. Here is a guide to wind energy in Germany.
