Alternative Energy Solutions Supports New Objectives

Electric Vehicles are being made by consumer's on their own judgement, plus new vehicles with very high prices are being made and most are also Hybrid Electric Vehicles yielding better distance or battery life expectancy but not always true to curb full CO2 Emissions. These considerations are in affect creating Electric Power Poles on Wheels to occupy our highways, the same is also true in foreign countries which most are becoming dependent on Natural Gas instead. We could look at this facet of Power Pole Human Transport as a dangerous situation of electrical electrocution or shock hazards being possible for both occupants and those whom come into contact accidentally with a Electric Vehicle during a accident. Theres little that has been done to consider these outstanding dangers present in both types of Electric Vehicles which are either Full Electric or Hybrid Partial Electric. This Foundations concern is Water Proofing of Electric Vehicle Components and of the Vehicle making a Consumer's Electric Vehicle more capable of surviving in a environment where Water presents a threat of Electrical dangers. It is also the concern of the Foundation that if a Consumer desires to use their own transmission for uniting a Electric Motor to their vehicle instead of employing a in-wheel Hub Electric Motor equivalent that the Transmission Plate be made of Plastic instead of being of Aluminum Plate thus lowering the weight of the vehicle and founding a easier method of handling the transition to a Electric Conversion while also saving vital material assets which would be a energy savings in itself. Plastic Plates are molded without jagged/sharp edges or extra workmanship needed to match the electric motor to their transmission and withstands heat and are as sturdy as Aluminum Plates so the trade-off is sufficient to give Consumer's the better option. Manufacturing of the Plastic Plates is a Specialized operation totally being a outside contract basis so that molding can be accomplished by several locations and are delivered instantly without delays.

For Alternatives to Electric Vehicles

That is fundamental Picken's Plan, but the same plan we speak of resolves all resources for energy, in many cases it is a combines energy effort to derive a savings thus for a few minutes only one source is used then another then another and possibly a pair to derive reimbursement of the energy expended. Therefore like Natural Gas, becomes CNG for vehicles in a mobile option for a homeowner and then once inside the vehicle it has a change to Hydrogen and Methane as I see this issue evolving and because of this a solution to creating a new form of energy can bring more energy use like Methane Pellets and a furnace or a vehicle engine that uses Methane Pellets to burn like a Hybrid and then the Hydrogen to create electricity which is also being created via solar photovoltaics to charge capacitance batteries which discharge if not used so instantly this must be collected and used to charge a battery without a loss. Methanol Fuel-Cell use is a cheaper option for Consumer's to consider rather than Hydrogen because the mass storage tanks for Hydrogen specifications require a pressure of 800bars while Methane does not require a high pressure. Natural Gas is already a home owners option for heating and cooling and connecting to the existing system installed to their home is a easy transition supporting home refilling for their Natural Gas (CNG) automobile, some are Hybrid Versions and this requires a new motor installation serving also their Fuel-Cells and Small Battery Installation Footprint. For making a Hybrid it is suggested a Consumer pay for a new Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) which is either a three or four cylinder, while options of a used engine for 6 cylinders is recommendable if their six cylinder is not adequately functioning. It is not recommendable for a Eight cylinder being used for a hybrid Electric vehicle. Engine purchases are up front cost factors in converting a Consumer's vehicle and warranty matters are those of the dealer that sells the engine separate of the Electric Vehicle Warranty requirement. Compressed Natural Gas is a viable option for conversions and recommendable by most standards are being adequate for Consumer's to consider for transportation.

OK so automotive may not be showing as some factor for Alabama residents and this is mainly because we have a abundance of coal, oil yet to be drilled and sold and used ourselves started by South Alabama University in Mobile and Natural Gas which is not being setup for CNG Vehicle Homeowners whom can also own a CNG Refill Compressor which connects to their home and CNG Vehicle plus not stating their position for service stations and CNG refill stations as a commercial venture or not, Energen Corporation controls Alabama Gas and all Subsidiaries which are leased lands of those whom are independent Natural Gas Suppliers which own according to their yield of Natural Gas. You could also see this as Energen's Stock Advantage. Your Natural Gas Energy Supplier should be contacted so you can determine their support for your ownership of a Natural Gas (CNG) auto for your home conversion connections. They would be the ones which would be contacted by you prior to receiving your converted vehicle.

You can deny that America is not obtaining a majority of its crude oil from abroad if you want to but that is a Mobile Solution esp. for Exxon/Mobil whom took their refinery to Saudi Arabia just so they could refine the fuel cheaper than shipping the crude oil to refine the crude oil in the states. yet this last batch of crude oil which is coming from the Middle East has lots of Sulfur in it and China is the main buyer and it is cheaper for them to get the value from it than it is for us to refine the sulfur laced crude oil. Maybe your not familiar with our sulfur laced coal reserves here in Alabama, the more that is removed the more sulfur content is left till one day the seam plays out. Automobiles became a mode for travel when horses were given their share of the grass fields to graze in and use of horses declined. There were electric vehicles of the past and there were Hydroxide Gas Vehicles also and that is becoming a new venture for some American's trying to give into the idea that customer's of vehicles can find their vehicle operating with a better gas mileage by burning Hydroxide Gas they generate in their vehicle and this they claim is a water vehicle. Hydroxide Gas is a impure Hydrogen. The effect is occurring in Alabama but not municipals which are bonded for transportation issues so the government wrapped up their problem long ago and is not about to alter nor divulge their operations. It is not a problem in Alabama to create a foundation for consumer's whom would rather stop using gasoline and paying high prices at the pump, that gets them out of the Oil Gridlock by foreign nations selling crude oil. Creating jobs is a benefit esp. for college and university students. If they could do it themselves they would and make a million then sell to another and then another to each do the same. This is a unique way to accomplish the task and I hope it will flourish in all states where consumer's can be granted to convert the vehicle and participate in a National Infrastructure Bank. But i do not want the Bank to be used as it has been by Pork Projects which never muster anything just to earmark funds. Nearly 14,000 Pork Projects in the Federal Budget in 2005. Cleaning up America should start at home, but for many home is where the street is because of the government change of direction on the issue of Banking and Finance. Pork Project Recipients of 2003.

Perhaps some venture capitalists could agree with you as their investments depend on global something or other some automotive esp. racing vehicles as many are foreign made and some aircraft and some Wind Turbines, esp.. But the problem in essence is not really energy or alternative forms of energy, it has been and still is Global Warming, Wind Turbines can only help create a alternative but in the meantime the culprit is automobiles producing CO2 in abundance. To counter this problem electric automobiles would be necessary which produce Zero. A top Scientist for NASA, James Hansen, said that the situation that the world is facing right now against Global Warming and Climate Change has long passed acceptable levels. There are only a few decades remaining before the more massive effects of global warming start taking shape. These will be in the form of extinction, ecosystem collapse and dramatic rise in world sea levels. Coal Fired power plants which run without any carbon absorbing equipment are contributing greatly to Climate Change and should be prevented from running past 2030. That says a lot for the remaining resource available in Alabama if Sulfur cannot be removed it will be the next offensive pollutant. Scrubbers costs about half to equal the cost of the plant itself. The claim to go Renewable Energy Sources means dropping the Coal and Fuel Oil Power Plants Resource entirely, other resources are better alternatives like Solar, Geothermal, Hydro Electric, Wind, Natural Gas, and Hydrogen, so Renewable Energy Bills are a real asset now and in the future because of Global Warming.

Marching Onward To Space and Fixing Our Environment

Where we need energy in space we should explore a new resource for energy coming from Sea Salt which is evident in the terrain of Mars and could be handled by robotic exploration of Mars and serve Energy Space Stations as well as Remote Energy Stations for our Moon, Robotic Delivery. Hydrogen is the result so that is the first component while only Oxygen needs be supplied from a source for it to be usable. Sea Salt is a new resource, discovered by John Kanzius of the John Kanzius Cancer Research Foundation. John Kanzius came upon the presence of Hydrogen from Sea Salt Water during exploring the possible Radio Wave Excitation of Sea Water as he sought a cure for pancreatic cancer. His cure assures that a Radio Wave can eliminate cancer cells while not harming other living cells of the human body. The discovery that John Kanzius has made in the Production of Hydrogen from Salt Water Using External Applied Radio Wave Frequency releasing Hydrogen without a electrolytic cathode or anode and not desalination prior to excitation to purify the Sea Water. It is ordinary Sea Water he uses to demonstrate the principle on a YouTube video. You may also learn of his discovery << here. As I see this flame evolve from Sea Water I realize that a Multi-Cell Production could be produced which would instantly serve a Fuel-Cell (non-combustion environment) therefore employing the benefit from Sea Water instantly producing Electricity to store in a battery. Operating a very small pressure containment would then be accessing a better flow of pure Hydrogen. Hydrogen Supply Stations for Consumer's could then be constructed which have a supply of Sea Salt Water. For inland Water Desalination Plants to work they need a pipeline to supply Sea Salt Water, doing this underground has become a viable option working like a Hydraulic Ram Pump (FYI: Info on operating & constructing a ia available from http://www.info.usaid.gov/). This is called Osmotic Energy, a Semipermeable Membrane, which is an organic filter, separates the solutions of freshwater and salt-water. The membrane only allows small molecules like water-molecules pass, thus Salt molecules, sand, silt and other contaminants are prevented from passage. The water aspires to decrease the salt-concentration on the side of the Semipermeable Membrane that contains most salt. The water therefore streams through the Semipermeable Membrane and creates a pressure on the other side. This pressure can be utilized in order to gain energy, for example by using a turbine and a generator, the process is called pressure-retarded osmosis, PRO. The adversity is Desalination in simple form. Power plants using osmosis (the osmotic process); both land-based plants and plants anchored to the sea floor present a vast opportunity for energy needs. What the osmosis does is that it creates a flow through the plant from a region of high water concentration (often freshwater) through a semipermeable membrane to a region of low water concentration (often NaCl) and it is that flow that forces the turbine to rotate, upon a rotation the pressure drops to 0 bar. Osmotic energy is renewable energy, since the process does not consume the Salt (Salt-water evaporation leads to precipitation over land).

A Submarine Hydroelectric Power Plant anchored to the sea floor named a SHEOPP Converter normally conveys fresh water through a penstock (standpipe) to a hydraulic turbine from a river mouth or an aqueduct. The lower end of the penstock is situated about 90 meters below the sea surface where the pressure is 9 bars. SHEOPP Converters utilize a flushing pump to prevent accumulation of unwanted solutes and contamination on the fresh water side of the Semipermeable Membranes (pressurized to 9 bars and is pumped up to the surface), therefore they stay functioning. Maximum efficiencies are obtained at 110 meters. Diluted solution returns to the seawater by the osmotic pressure. Osmotic Energy can be a power source for many types of vehicles. Hydro-Turbines are a new opportunity to explore in depth for energy production and is a renewable energy source. Forming both types of units would in affect increase the objective.

Alternatively, Fresh Water can be used to create electricity, it contains at least 850 parts per million dissolved salt water. A Dialytic Cell function via charged membranes with a potential of 80 millivolts at the interface. Multi-Cell configurations creates more power. Using solutions of different salt concentrations with the Semipermeable Membrane ensures electric power generation. Brine has higher concentrations of Salt and if used with a Semipermeable Membrane could be pressure fed so that the Fresh Water is supplied via vapor pressurization; salt-gradient solar ponds for energy (where osmosis is used) is a option of competitive objectives to use instead of a ocean location for the salinity purposes. Reverse Electro Dialysis (RED) (or osmosis) Process and waste product in this process is brackish water (salt and fresh water mixed). Reversed Electrodialysis in small units is possible but larger not due to the overhead costs. Blue Energy is Energy extracted from osmosis of salt and fresh water through a membrane. Resulting in Multi-Cell configuration solely a energy potential example is in the Netherlands, more than 3,300 square meters fresh water runs into the sea per second on average providing 3,300 MW based on the output flow of 1 MW/m3 fresh water per second. Kema is working on a Electrically Modified Polyethylene Plastic Membrane to lower the overhead costs. Fossil fuels contaminate our environment with every internal combustion enegine generating smog among other dangerous gases and are becoming scarce each year, some dead oil wells are now only providing Natural Gas, other are capped off so to not totally dry up a field which are connected together, observed from samplings taken of injected hot water solutions. We are almost certain we have to get a solution which will support increasing our environmental conditions, time is running out to observe these conditions and energy is a necessary component to our living circumstances therefore development of energy where it is used is the only option as transport of energy increases in costs while demand increases only reaches the same conclusion. Siemens offers some services as well as products. For Siemens Power Generations checkout their site for details esp. for Natural Gas Fuel-Cells.

For Wind Turbine information you need checkout Vestas, especially for Offshore Wind Turbines in Northern Europe. Vestas maintains several models offering increasing power outputs: (1) V52-850 kW, (2) V80-2.0 MW, (3) V90-3.0 MW. Their Turbine Blades are made of mostlt Carbon Fibers and song extra strength steels. A Microprocessor-Controlled Pitch Regulation System called OptiTip® is a means to obtain better efficiency from the available winds and OptiSpeed® allows the rotational speed of the rotor to vary from the nominal rotational speed by up to 60 per cent, and by up to 30 per cent above and below the synchronous speed. The V52-850 kW is most popular and Vestas has installed 2,100 over the past 25 years. Be sure to download their Brochures.

State Laws governing Natural Gas (CNG) vehicles apply in all concerns especially Hybrid versions or Total Electric Vehicles.
