I would like to see the excess DC power from solar and wind to be used to decompose water into hydrogen.
Hydrogen could power our homes heating requirements.
Ballard Power Systems is one of 30 publicaly traded companies that are Developers of proton exchange membrane fuel cell power systems used in stationary power plants and zero-emission vehicles.
www.ballard.com is currently making systems that are being sold to Japan only to provide the homeowner with the capability of getting off the grid…

I too have worked some with hydrogen and have a unit that I made to convert water to HHO. I plan build a unit to collect Hydrogen from water that is powered by solar. I will let you know when I have it completed.
Good luck with your endeavors

The stars have aligned to create the possibility of a paradigm shift that is and has been urgently needed. We have an angry citizenry due to pain at the pump, a presidential election on the horizon, and a man with a plan to dramatically and imminently reduce our dependance on foreign oil, who has the resources, contacts and connections, knowledge and "will" to get it done.
Please share this plan with your circle of friends, family and associates. Unrge them to JOIN. As you know, it is simply like signing a petition. With large numbers of supporters, we can put pressure to bear on Congress to incentivize alternative and renewable energies, and insure that our future president will be a leader that will push for domestic energy solutions. JFK once said. "in the next 10 years we will put a man on the moon". He got it done. We need that kind of leadership on energy.
Time is of the essence. If gas prices retreat the public will forget the pain, and our moment may be lost. How frightening to be looking back and apologizing to our children that we could not get this done when we had the chance.

Nice Avatar; it looks like you've already got a handle on Wind Power. ;-)
Hydrogen alternatives (both generation & storage) are a little beyond the intitial scope of the PP, but I would like to see more activity in the NEXT generation technology too.
There is no focus group for Hydrogen yet, but if you start one, I'd join up. Going off-grid, or feeding back into it are both good personal & national goals.
To learn more about what you can do, read here from the members and focus groups here in the Pickens Plan.
Feel free to join the most dynamic Alternative Energy Group:
Solar!(Click here)
Reaching accross this great country from sunrise to sunset, add your collective experience, drive & determination to support this vital global resource, and maintain the American technological lead.
We want to keep creating ways to tap this vital resource, not just for the future, but for tomorrow.
For those of you in the Solar Corridor, please also our 'local' group:

Let's find a way to get organized, together with our neighbors.
