How do I build home alternative energy sources utilizing wood?

I would like to convert my house to total wood power, perhaps run a steam powered turbine for electricity. Also thought about solar power but I live in Michigan. Any suggestions?

Is it true we are going to run out of oil?

I do think it would be best to invest in electric cars and hybrids and solar cars maybe steam cars? and hydrogen cars and fuel cell cars

i want to be able to generate enough electricity to power my home with the use of steam engine who can help me

in case of power disruption due to bird flu i believe steam engines that are wood burning combined with generators will work well because fire and water are plentiful

Why do nuclear power plants spend huge amounts of $ to create hot water only to then send it to cooling towers

Wouldn’t it be more efficient to instantly reuse that hot water/steam and not have to reheat it?

Why should the U.S of America depend on …..OIL ….import(s)?

The speed to which we travel.We had the 55 mph speed limit [in the earler 1970s].THE lights are turned off ( motion detectors in use )Solar /water and Wind power are the ways we should live .Steam /pedal/horse/and your leather personal carriers aka boots/shoes .Are ways we need to use before its too late. Do you agree .OR…..

How do electric generators at power plants work?

Generators using steam turbines and fossil fuel, coal, oil, nuclear fuel, wind, hydro fuel, solar fuel, and tidal movement.

Solar Flash Steam Cannon Solar Powered Gun Trough Mirror Fresnel Lens

This is the trough mirror and a Fresnel Lens set. The water was shot in with a hose to produce flash steam. Ball bearing were used as ammo. A few modifications from this learning experience and we can launch 200 yards.
