Here is an article about a guy in New Jersey. Jersey Guy. He found out a way to put solar cells on a roof and
around his yard that makes enough electricity for his personal consumption and
more to sell to the grid then stores it for the winter and transfers heat into hydrogen
tanks.
Ingenious. American genius. That's what I'm tawkin about.
Why isn't everyone doing it? Well, not everyone has a house (one in eight remember are in some foreclosure stage)
and not everyone with a house has enough yard for huge hydrogen tanks. Also there is something called the
Oil and Gas Lobby and political will on its won't.
Energy security means we don't have to fight wars over fossil fuel. And really folks, we don't. We have
everything we need here, if only we had capacity to harnass it and allocated R&D funding appropriately.
The cells that now cover a whole roof might someday be able to be much smaller capturing more heat...
No telling, but if we have what we all need here, we don't need to be killing anyone or getting killed digging
in foreign sands.
What happened to the plans for the White House solar panels? AND EVERY GOVERNMENT BUILDING???
What is the American public doing paying for electricity when the government has building square footage such
that the roofs support solar powering the entire government. What is the Fed's PEPCO bill that you are paying?
With this debt we can't afford Not to be Green any longer.
GOT GREEN?
