By: TJPlocek. on 16 Jan 10, 14:53:42
I have been trying to get Puerto Rico to support this for the past 5 years. It now seems likely that it will be developed in Hawaii. A 10 MW Pilot plant is planned by Lockheed Martin for operatin in about 3 years with 100 MW units several years later. The cost will be about twice what we estimated but it is likely to come to pass. Some jobs may come to Puerto Rico, but Puerto Rico will be a customer rather than a leader.

By: SuperJoel84. on 16 Jan 10, 04:04:10
@TJPlocek I am a huge supporter of this idea. I honestly don't know what kind of support you would need for this project to be done, or which sources PR could use to finance such a plant, but I guess everything would be easier if we reach a Free Association pact with U.S.A, rather than the colonial Commonwealth status we have now.

By: TJPlocek. on 04 Jan 10, 18:32:51
Thanks for your comments. Unfortunately it has been very difficult to obtain support. Even to obtain an order for the electricity (a Power Purchase Agreement). Once a unit is working, it is likely to provide inexpensive renewable energy outside the control of large firms or Governments.

By: TJPlocek. on 25 Oct 09, 15:14:35
40 OTEC Plants will likely cost between 16 and 20 billion dollars and save around 52 million barrels of oil each year. About half of the cost of the units will be for salaries of those designing and building the units. At $70 a barrel for oil, the annual saving will be around $3.6 billion for an annual return over 18% plus the creation of thousands of jobs.

And the $64000 ...
By: quadrophenia3. on 20 Oct 09, 22:44:53
And the $64000 dollar question is... how much would 40 OTEC plants cost!!! The main problem with alternative fuel sources is exactly that. They are only an alternate power source once 'cheap' oil has run out. If there is say 1 billion tons of oil left and we burn it all in 1 year or 100 years, what does it matter. It's all going to get burned before people will pay for electricity produced in this way, so party on dudes.

Poor Batterys ... You should really use a charging controller . Lead Acid Batteries really dont like too high charging voltages (and to high charging current) .. this will kill the battery very fast. and since good controllers are switch mode devices they can also use very low voltages coming from the generator to create a usable charging voltage for the batterys, even if the output of the generator is lower then the needed voltage. you pollute too if you have to buy a new battery every 2 month.

By: KVLai. on 31 May 09, 22:32:51
I think its better to place all 3 system together in every chosen location. Lets say when its too cloudy for the solar cells below, the wind turbine besides it will turn because cloudy days are usually windy. As for the biomass at the same location can provide the supply slack from wind & solar. Its easier to coodinate its supply at any given location. The high tech hydro system will be the storage for night electricity combined with night wind. Please comment. TQ

Lastly, the system is totally self-sufficient in terms of digestives used because all raw materials can be obtained and stored in the plant for long periods of time.

By: simouny. on 03 Sep 08, 17:45:44
some speculation is that methane produced in bio-digester is carbon emit free. Other gases however are stored in different tanks to be used in their own way. How about the fertilizer? These can be used freely on farms with minimal impact in soil-microbes ration because as i have read in agri journal fertilizers from bio-digester are cleaner and less toxic than synthetic ones (high nitrogen content). Sludge is also accounted for because there is non produced in biogas plants.

By: simouny. on 03 Sep 08, 17:42:54
I think there are a lot of flaws in the multi plant system but not so much that they cannot try and solve it. Even with the loss of energy in transit to other parts of the country the system has to operate to produce even at the least amount of energy. The question is with solar and power on a non permanent stay, can biogas serve it's total energy production for the whole nation on it's own and what effects can very large scale plant system have on the environemnt.

Crops sequestration can't compete full on with forests though can it? - just guessing. That said, I've also read that tropical rainforests aren't the "lungs" we usually think they - produce an incredible amount of C02 in decaying undergrowth. I imagine its really hard to project well with a far-off large scale model like this- what'll full-scale 'farming' would do to water systems, surface temps, wind patterns. & Pop? Just playing devil's advocate. Can u suggest some good reading sources?

The only problem I ...
By: Bioeconomy. on 17 Apr 08, 00:27:21
The only problem I see with the concept is that neither wind nor solar can go carbon-negative (biomass can, by coupling its use to CCS). And that's what we need to make a truly climate fighting system.

2. But it's true ...
By: Bioeconomy. on 17 Apr 08, 00:25:52
2. But it's true that this potential (based on an explicit "no deforestation" and "reforestation" scenario) is mainly based in the CIS (200Ej), Africa (400Ej) and Latin America (350EJ). Energy crop production can restore ecosystems, store carbon in soils (and become carbon-negative), and combat desertification and erosion. It's also a major tool in the fight against poverty and hunger. So I think there's no reason to assume that there's not a huge potential for sustainable biomass.

1. Well, according ...
By: Bioeconomy. on 17 Apr 08, 00:22:49
1. Well, according to the IEA's Bioenergy Task 40 and the Copernicus Institute's QUICKSCAN model (now used by the Food & Agriculture Organisation of the UN), there's land potential for the production of 1500 Exajoules by 2050, accounting for all food, fiber, fodder and forest product needs of growing populations. 1500Ej is around 3.5 times as much as all energy currently consumed worldwide from all sources (coal, oil, gas, nuclear). So there's absolutely no shortage of resources.

Eh, well my "data" ...
By: crock703. on 16 Apr 08, 23:45:28
Eh, well my "data" comes from articles in scientific journals, and stews with the rumors I pick up on youtube. I was really just speculating on whether the video is neglecting to address any flaws in the idea. Energy lost in transit is one, but also I've heard that in the US we'd have to use an incedible amount of land to make biofuels a big portion of our CURRENT consumption. That said, biofuels also take up food farming land, and replace forests. As it would in Africa, which is starving.

(If Solar energy is ...
By: crock703. on 16 Apr 08, 00:08:55
(If Solar energy is comes from the South, when wind is minimal in the North, a fair amount of that solar energy will be lost in transit to the North. Also, a lot of energy will have to travel far into the urban areas.) The strength of this idea is plant coordination.. seems fairly simple. Did no one really think of or test it yet? I'm surprised we haven't heard more about it. In either case, maybe its success is being silenced, still too unproven, or the video is not mentioning ideas faults.

This is really ...
By: crock703. on 15 Apr 08, 20:55:52
This is really interesting. Article is short on hard data though. Couple questions to ask.. - How will large biomass needs impact food supply & costs? If its still true that France is the only Euro country able to feed itself, Germany's cheap biofuel relies on cheap food imports. - The model is a 1/10k representation of Germany's actual needs. Does the land utilized also represent 1 ten thousandth of Germany's available land? - Is the model accounting for energy lost in transit?

I believe it is used by most hydro power stations (except perhaps in the US). Much less power is needed at night, and it is expensive to shut down power stations, so they use the excess power to pump water back uphill. It only requires a lake/reservoir at the bottom of the incline.

By: WolYou. on 08 Jun 09, 10:24:29
Crap. You'll need lots of cables and maintenance work to keep it in shape. Good for the industry, bad for the consumer. The only energy ressource worth being established is geothermal energy. But this means independence of weather and suppliers for daily needed equipment, no transportation and low running-cost. All of those factors are a threat to big energy corporations.

My project has nothing floating around. What I use is just the swells we see in this video but in a completely different way and everything that needs some kind of maintenance is just out of the water! We already have the technology my project requires, we just need someone to pay attention on that.

By: hoser4. on 21 Mar 09, 17:22:25
Actually, wind farms have been known to alter rain fall patterns, which can argued as ruining (especially farm) land. This makes sense, since not as much wind energy exists to carry the rain to where it'd normally fall. However, every man-made structure has this effect to some degree: cities, with all their blacktop roofs and blacktop streets, are reknowned for their artificial "hot spots". If you've ever noticed that airplanes experience more turbulence when flying over a city, this is why.

You can be sure the water is further purified with a filter system before they consume it. I seriously doube they collect waste water in a container and process it directly.

Thanks for the video. Renewable energy sources such as solar and wind are gaining acceptance by the people. Very soon, renewable energy sources such as wind will power many places like China and the United States. The Department of Energy estimated that wind could account for 20 percent of U.S. power by 2030. Pacific Crest Transformers has more information. It specializes in the manufacture of liquid-filled distribution transformers.

By: cdltpx. on 01 Dec 08, 04:13:23
Integrate a solar ammonia system on panels back so the panel can take the concentrated light of a dish on a smaller panel I bet if you remove the heat effectively you will have the ability to improve efficiency to the level of added light. There by reducing the cost of the solar panel by making its gain greater. This system would make it cost effective to add a tracking system if gain were increased. The panel would have to be modified to deliver the output it would need a large guage wire.

By: cdltpx. on 29 Nov 08, 23:11:34
Cool these panels send this warm temp around or into these batteries. Since solar panels produce better at peak times if the heat is removed we can improve efficiency of panels 15% just with this method. Look at developing nations they seem to get by just on charcoal we need to help those that are on the charcoal system providing solar panels and cookers for these that will take the time to use it. Putting charcoal to nighttime use would greatly reduce greenhouse by allowing reforestation.

By: cdltpx. on 29 Nov 08, 22:53:22
Is there a way to include a steam in todays wind generators so on days when we have relative little wind the sun is beaming on the steam generator pushing the rear of the wind turbine. Massive batteries can be constructed using wells into the ground coated with plastic and plates& liquid added. This would greatly reduce the cost of huge banks of batteries. These batteries would maintain a constant temp regulated by chosen depth lessening maintenance. Place these in the shade of solar panels.

By: cdltpx. on 29 Nov 08, 22:41:57
Why don't we use a hybrid of sorts with the solar cell some alcohol or other hydrocarbon. The way this works is we get dc from the panel then apply this to water with some hydrogen peroxide to produce browns gas mixed with the hydrocarbon we can fire the browns gas to power turbine with steam. Homes need to be built to use the sun as efficiently as possible refrigerators need to lie on their backs and should be vented depending upon the season light needs to be solar fiber optic delivery.

Example: Home windturbine will work all night at good wind to supply you with energy, that will be consumed by coffee machine, to boil and warm coffee for some hours! WE NEED TO SAVE ENERGY ALSO!
