for power generation? In Nevada alone, the government owns millions of acres of land that is just sitting there. Either sell it or use it. Solar thermal power would be a nice option to cut our oil use to help escape the deadly grip of foreign...
The only problem is that making solar power a viable option for power generation would require actually destroying vast tracts of land to develop the infrastructure that is needed.
It is a good idea that can be used to supplement our...

For India 2004, statistics are:
83% Conventional Thermal
13% Hydro
2% Nuclear
1% Geothermal, solar, wind, and wood and waste.
My question is that other than thermal (coal), hydro (water), aero (windmill), solar (sun) and atomic electric power generation, is there any possible way of generating the electricity from cosmic rays or cosmic radiations (not lightning power).
No, there is not enough energy that reached the surface of the earth from cosmic rays to generate significant amounts of electric power.

I suppose if it is a school project, then the solar energy one sounds the most feasible. The rest are all rather big scale and it would be hard to do such a project.

Adani Group launches India's largest solar power plant
Srinagar, Jan 14: Indias leading integrated infrastructure conglomerate the Adani Group, has commissioned a 40 Megawatt (MW), country's largest, solar power Plant in Kutch district, Gujarat.
For Indias largest private thermal power producer, the Solar Power Plant marks Adanis first big foray in the renewable energy sector.
Going forward, Adani plans to expand the capacity of this plant to 100 MW, the company in a statement to Greater Kashmir said.
Giving details it said the company has commissioned country's largest Solar Power Plant in record time of 150 days starting from foundation stone laying to electricity generation.

Getting Your Just Deserts! « Post on Green
I think I touched several raw nerves in my last article on US debt, so rather than continue the controversy by continuing the series I had already prepared, for those of you who are interested you can get the entire report by requesting it from me via the “Contact” page.
Late last year, something of great import caught my attention. At the time I didn’t give it any space in these pages because we were all wrapped up in the preparations for Copenhagen. However, the more I look at this, the more excited I become about it and I’m sure that many have already heard about “The Desertec Initiative.”A Memorandum of Understanding to establish a Desertec Industrial Initiative (DII) was signed in Munich by a dozen major industrial players with the objective of developing the technical, economic, political, social and ecological framework for carbon-free power generation in the deserts of North Africa. Signatory companies of the DII MOU, whose regional focus is on Europe, the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), are: ABB, Abengoa Solar, Cevital, Deutsche Bank, E.ON, HSH Nordbank, MAN Solar Millennium, Munich Re, M+W Zander, RWE, Schott Solar, and Siemens.
