Solar Thermal Power Station

This technology has been tested and works and with the latest equipment updates will generate power 24 -7 if the gov would back operations like this we could produce hydrogen as well.
The hydrogen could be used to run cars, trucks. buses...

<<with the latest equipment updates will generate power 24 -7>>

i don't think so.
other than maybe at the north pole in june.

however, there are several solar plants.

I would love to see the gov get behind projects like the solar thermal power station and use some our fuel tax to fund these projects that way long term we will all be better of.
No more burning fossil fuel!!

Hi Bert,

I am glad that you are interested in getting the govt more interested in the environment.

Interestingly enough the Australian government has implemented one of the most aggressive compaigns in the wolrd,...

I have a few questions i could really use your help on. Thanks so much in advance!

1. How are solar cells and batteries similar in function?

2. what are four costs of using fossil fuels in thermal power stations?

3) One of the biggest benefits of fossil fuels is their cost. Coal, oil and natural gas are abundant right now and relatively inexpensive to drill or mine for. In fact, coal is the most plentiful fossil fuel and it is found over much of the world....

Battery Electric Cars will use primarily grid power which currently is polluting as coal is the primary fuel. I think it is settled that overall transferring power creation to a central station is less polluting than having it in many individual...

Pumped-storage hydro is a commonly used method. There are hundreds of working installations around the world.

In Europe, about 5% of their total capacity is pumped storage.

I'm doing some research and have trouble distinguishing the difference between these three types of energy sources.

So far, I have Conventional energy widely used/practical energy sources like oil, gas and coal. My assumption is...

Hey Fud, you have a bit of a mess there with definitions. Let me try to explain some of it. The term, "Conventional Energy," is basically what you have written already. In most cases, it refers to fossil fuel based energies. You have to
