The operation of the hydropower plant
The increasing interest in the study and production of renewable energy with low impact environment, led to the development of several power plants for electricity production that exploit natural resources such as wind, steam ol 'water. At this juncture we will describe the basic principles of operation of a hydroelectric ...How to produce electricity with water
The hydroelectric plants represent one of the oldest methods to generate electricity with water: hydraulic turbines are activated by the mass of water that passes through the inside them, taking advantage of the potential energy which then turn into mechanical energy. The latter, in turn, is used to produce electricity, ...How to heat the pool water in an environmentally friendly manner
One of the problems of the holders of a pool is certainly the temperature of the water. Especially in the pre-summer, back when the Sun is not a constant weather, it is difficult to see people get so decided to dive or in the water, preferring an entry more 'soft', ...The advantages of the photovoltaic solar panels
The advantages of photovoltaics, which is why choosing the energy green. In recent years it has been a real boom , especially in our country. We are talking about the opportunities that the photovoltaic system can offer both private and corporate. But why in times of crisis, we should invest ...How does a photovoltaic system
More and more often we hear about alternative sources of energy, clean and renewable energy, especially solar energy. But how many of us really know how a plant photovoltaics? To understand this we can start from the name itself, which means ENERGY PRODUCED BY THE LIGHT and derives its etymology ...Urine – a future source of energy?
Scientists study the urine as a source of energy to power a fuel cell or to provide fuel gas.
It's true! A team researchers at the University of the West of Eng, and in Bristol, under the direction of Dr. Ioannis Ieropoulos, studied urine as a source of potential energy. The ...Guide to alternative sources of energy
From most parts you often hear about alternative sources of energy , confusing this term with that of renewable energy, but although they may seem like there is actually a difference that underlies the concept: alternative energy sources are all those energy sources exploiting any possible way to get energy ...How to install wind turbines
In this short article I would like to share a few small precautions for the installation of a wind turbine, as it must be taken into account many factors, and the game may not be worth the candle in the case of a wrong installation. If you take into consideration ...How to harness wind energy
The forces of nature, such as water moving tides and rivers, fire and wind are elements that can also create tremendous damage to the poor and small businesses human (comparison), but which, if properly harnessed, can also bring enormous benefits equally. Consider in particular the wind. It 's the result ...How to extract energy from lightning
Many people are always asked if a lightning strike could be exploited as a source of energy. The answer is yes, because lightning is a form of renewable energy . Taking advantage of a lightning strike does not harm the environment and is a practical and efficient way to accumulate ...
