Anyone help me to know what to consider when designing solar power for the home?

4 Comments[Author: Category: Solar Power ]

Question:

Hello,
I know little on solar power for the home. I understand that it is possible to convert power to chemical form then use it as electricity. My question is, what elements are involved and how is the sizing being done?
I need the power design to power lights (say 10), TV and radio.

I need it to be drawn out showing the dementions. The one I am looking for uses a water wheel, a “slooth” box, and a genarator. The “slooth” box is connected to the water wheel which is connected to a belt somehow on the generator which sends power to the house

Aquila Green Energy Petition Writing Help?

1 Comment[Author: Category: Green Energy ]

Question:

In my city we have only one energy provider to choose from: Aquila Energy. Unfortunately Aquila has no program in place to allow for consumers to purchase renewable “green” energy only. I have contacted their offices a number of times via phone and email to encourage them to look into implementing such a program but their reps don’t have the slightest clue what I’m talking about and my emails go unanswered.

Since I have had no luck in getting anyone at Aquila to respond to my inquiries and appeals to implement such a program I have decided to create an online petition to let Aquila’s customers speak up

Because this is a big undertaking I want to make sure that I get the petition right the first time. I am going to address it to Aquila’s corporate office with a CC to the Missouri Board of Energy, should any others be involved/CC’d?

Do you have any general petition writing hints or tips?

(g=9.8m/s^2).
