Cant find article from last 2-3 weeks or so, on Yahoo News re: a man that had solar panels who compared cost?

Posted on February 7, 2011 by admin| 2 Comments

Article spoke of guy who bought large plot of land, had solar panels and a generator, and used fireplace to heat house. story ended by recommending windmill for power generation – why is it so hard to find past Yahoo news stories? This is ALWAYS a problem – the search engine is USELESS!
That first hit is not it. The article in question tends to cast a rather negative outlook on the practice.

Solar Power For Homes – Important News

Posted on January 17, 2011 by admin| Leave a comment

www.SolarEnergyGuide.net – Solar Power For Homes – Important News Solar power for homes is a great way to save money, while protecting the environment. It truly is rather ironic, when you consider how much time, effort, and money has been dedicated to acquiring more fossil fuel. The purchase of fuel from other countries, as well as the drilling for fuel domestically, has cost literally billions of dollars. Imagine if this time, effort, and money had been used to equip each home with solar energy… Solar energy creates zero pollution, does not harm the environment, and it is always available. It seems only natural that we would be exploring solar power as an alternative, or even as a primary source of energy. Although initially, installing solar power can be a bit costly, the long term result is sure to be that of great savings. Solar power is used to heat many swimming pools, which will add weeks up to even a month or more of swimming time each season. There are several different ways in which this can be done. Sun domes cover your pool and allows the water temperature to become fifteen to twenty degrees warmer, while keeping out bugs and debris. They also include a door, and several windows. Solar pool heaters, and solar panels, heat your pool’s water by circulating the warmed water through your pools existing pump. Solar power for home water heaters is an excellent, money saving choice. Basically, the water is deposited into a collection tank, where it’s heated by the …

The village of Jericho lies just over 70km from the South African capital, Pretoria. But like millions of other South Africans, residents of Jericho have limited or no electricity, so watching the World Cup has been practically impossible. As Al Jazeera’s Haru Mutasa reports, Jericho’s residents are now watching the tournament with a little help from solar power.

Solar projects enlighten students -School District looking skywards for solutions

Posted on October 9, 2010 by admin| Leave a comment

COMOX VALLEY — The Comox Valley School District is hoping to enlighten students and the general public through new alternative energy projects it has on the go. The first is through the creation of the valley’s first solar powered sign, a project designed and manufactured through the physics and engineering students of Georges P. Vanier Secondary School. The sign, located on the front of the school’s property utilizes a large solar panel which harnesses the sun’s energy and stores it as battery power for night time illuminations. Engineering teacher Steve Classen said the project shows kids and the community the potential of solar energy, proving fossil fuels don’t have to be relied on anymore. The district had earlier completed a project on the roof of Highland Secondary in Comox. In that instance, water passes through large solar panels heating the water in order to cut down on the school’s hot water heating bills. The projects are considered a first step in “getting people excited about solar energy letting them know the district is committed to energy conservation” according to the district’s Manager of Energy Conservation, Fred McGregor
