Not: Why shouldnt oil companies be able to write off drilling expenses? I get to write off my business expenses.

Why not. They could have like small but many spinning thingies in built to the face of the car and whenever a car goes they would start spinning to generate electricity. The car could start by the electricity generated during the day by wind.

Hey everyone. I have a science project due tomorrow and I can’t find ay site that tells me why we should use wind turbines to create electricity. I was just wondering if someone could give me a descriptive answer on why we should use wind turbines or could someone give me a site that does. Thank you!

Im doing this for school and its like an assignment, im suppose to find name of a scheme like nuclear generation power or wind farms but i dont know the names, help?

evidently the utillities division dosent want to buy the excess electricity i generate .. City passed an ordanance aginst wind generators?
this generator is about the size of a ceiling fan

Since I have told about natural gas, and watching the commercials covering natural gas, I have been thinking(which still hurts at times)about this:

1)If we increase the use of natural gas will the price not go up for this commodity?

2)How would we supply all of the states in the United States since this gas remains unstable during shipment? Most of the natural gas is piped.

3)If wind is calm during specific days for the wind turbines, would we not fall back onto natural gas for electricity thus spiking the price short term for the natural gas and electricity?

I wish I had the answers…………..

If you turn a ‘wind’ turbine connected to a electric generator very fast once in space will it produce energy continuosly ?

What % comes from coal, what % comes from natural gas, what % comes from nuclear, what % from wind, etc. If you can provide a link to back it up that is even better. I’d also like to know the breakdown for Pennsylvania but if anyone knows that.

I have a 800 square foot cabin in Maine. I want to get electricity out there to power a t.v., radio maybe, MAYBE a computer, a room fan, basic lights, washer and dryer. Im wondering if I should use solar? Wind? there is a stream running nearby and Im curious about "Micro hydro turbines" to fuel my electricty. Im just looking to see which is best for the money, and electric output. – Thank you

Just wondering if the wind up process has a name, or a Wikipedia article or something?

If so, how much? I’m thinking of moving and buying with enough property to put up some wind mills. Any advice on how to calculate costs and profit would be helpful.

Dont be a smart A$$ obviously it sthe stuff that powers machines
but what is the essence of electicity its not fire water, earth, or wind
I herad somewhere that scientist do not know exactly what electricity is we just know how to harness it- is this true???

in windmill,wind rotates the turbine but how is current generated from the rotation of the turbine?ie explain all the reactions that take place

All it would take is about -20 a month for 10 years 50% of energy could be produced from clean sources like wind and solar. But human behavior can be persuaded through rules. One of our government’s innovations is compliance standards. Check it out.
