No mention of Brilliant Light and Power. Are people really that blind?
I hope someone in the future generates electricity from power of gravity..
Aptera baby!!
The wave energy feels like the one least likely to be damaged to climate change.
All these technologies and solutions are advertised well. There are plenty other companies and technologies which may work even better than these techs. Also when u Say solar is less efficient than wind – that's not the whole story. Predictable Delivery to keep the grid stable is also an important factor which solar is much more reliable. Energy is multiple aspects – generation, long term stability, grid stability and less volatility. Tech like geothermal fracking and others could also be better than any of these.

Hooray, now fusion is now only 30 years away, just like it was when I was a kid in the 1970s!
Too superficial – how much energy are these tech producing?
Solar window it is great for electric cars
The wave swing looks good, it doesn't take up a large footprint or upset any views. No noise and could be used as science platforms
I have an idea for clean energy. It can potentially be made smaller but I’m not a real scientist but I think I have the right idea. It should be 100% clean energy and we wouldn’t run out. I might have the solution to clean energy.
Nothing about deep geothermal? Have a look at Eavor company. They already have one working in Canada.
Lightyear just went bankrupt, they’re looking for major investment to keep going…
Lowering the cost of solar manufacturing cost every year is the key. same with wind. If global initiative is being implemented to reduce solar/wind manufacturing cost by 50% per year. In 3 years, you reduce by 85%. Something that capitalist and oil/gas burning industry do not want to see. This will retire even gas power plant. The world need to have super high voltage transmission line built all over the world to transmit power from dessert and unused land to densely populated areas.
It just dawned on me that if you attached a heavy weight to a giant air tank, you'd have something that bobbed up and down with a ton of force. I wonder what the limit is before you start losing too much energy from the waves no longer being able to as effectively move it. -I feel like that would scale, if the air-tank and weights were spread out over a wider area. You wouldn't even need a big tank either you could use sealed tubes and bags of sand…
🤔 interesting the world is thinking ahead, too bad most of us won't be able to benefit 😜
Thank you for spending the time to create and share this content awareness 🤙🏾
Greatest things to look out for in 2023: 1. floating offshore wind, 2. perowskit PV and 3. sodium-ion battery.
Ex-Tesla CTO's Redwood Materials is valued at $4 Billion, and plans to annually repurpose 1.3 Million long range EV batteries by 2025. Its a start.
Shorebreak harvester
Firstlightfusion was first co to make excess energy at fusion, and they are building a prototype of a reactor that is thought to produce energy to grid.
since the ocean is used to acquire energy from, I think it's possible to utilize the energy people expend when exercising at the gym to be harnessed in a battery and recycled. This would be a great way to build communities participation in producing energy and physical strength and health.
The window pane solar.
I have nice idea, in fact more then just one you might check it out on my u ch
A few good ideas that based on known clues of physics
| "+"
| |
| ____|____
| |______________ "+"(out)
|
| "–"(out) ‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾‾|
| ‾‾‾‾‾‾‾|‾‾‾‾‾‾‾
| |
| "–"
Idea is to discharge capacitor(two plates) inwards instead of outwards in which direction force(hence Voltage) is weaker/lesser but inward in which direction force is much stronger/greater
After that charge could depart through mid-plane in between two poles/planes
without any hinder (because "+" and "–" in this/along this plane equally far)
And in theory charge could leave as much far as it takes(infinitly) without any effort/work
This is the idea- capacitor that amplifying Voltage (meanwhile current would be the same)
In theory it(this principal) allows to obtain free energy
This is not only opportunity ,
another one – in equation for U(voltage) = dB/dt there is no such things as distance and B(magnet force) as name imply force per current unit.
Which means output power depends on force solely, because voltage proportional to difference between forces , and current proportional to current itself(We might spent 1 meter or 1 millimeter to obtain the same 1 Amp and U voltage)
of course it is without metal core inside the coil , because this way it would be messy. And of course in reality there is interaction between currents (there is no such thing as magnetic field , this is really wrong conception, model of magnetic field depict almost nothing about real interaction, for electrostatic unit is charge , for magnetic interactions it should be section of current, and it would be calculated by integration of interaction between this sections)
We could spent 1 millimeter to gain voltage on generator without metallic core
But we also could make almost constant Magnetic Force (B)
it would be nice motor with force but almost without voltage on its coil. (of course without iron core)
(something similar to constancy of Gravity force near Earth surface)
if we look at the formula we would notice that its required high mass and large distance of it (there is distance to center of earth in formula and if its value changed on 1 or 2 meters difference would be very low(negligible)
for magnet it would be high current and large distance.
For simulate section of current we might make wide magnet with very strong current (magnet consist of two opposite currents)
So in the same plane as this current we might place our wire motor.
If our Giant magnet would be electromagnet even this tiny induced by our motor voltage would significant
For example 0.000 000 00001 Volts and 1 000 000 000 Amps
but we could use permanent magnet for this , as from where it make energy for it (from ether or other interaction with
Universe m , this question remains)
Another one model where constant current of permanent magnet generates power you could find on my tub ch
In short there is energy of permanent magnet as well , if use coil instead there would be spending of the dame amount of energy
There is effect Called "Seebeck Effect" – this Effect itself is a generator.
Because
Connection between two metals no matter how thin(wire-sprout)
would Change State of System drastically/completely (how it operates).
Before connection there is no way for electrons to move freely between two metals (there is a surface charge that prevent electrons from leaving metal surface) , but tight connection just erase this barrier , and state of system would start to change to the new value of surface charges on each metals.
There would be current , there would be voltage of this current
And amount of this current would be dependent only on amount of surface/volume of this metals (not surface area of connection , this would only contribute to the speed of process)
We may connect as tiny wires as it takes , but take metals with as big surfaces as it takes. (low to nothing spendings and substantial income).
Just by switching system between two states this process could generate current.
But there is a thing , if areas of the surfaces for this two metals would be big enough and connection wires would be small enough , process of charging wouldn't keep up with restoration process (by environment) and it wouldn't be necessary to switch system at all.
(Environment is restoring system all the time(charge diffusion in environment) ,
after two metals is disconnected metals would eventually change back to its former state , excluding chemical reactions , to prevent this noble gas like Nitrogen or Helium should be used)
(this system would by Giant(at least in terms of surface))
There is a system that changing its state out of low to nothing energy and scale don't effect consumption (raising gain without spending's )
4:24 None
Green power is not made by using green power and both solar and wind have a 10yr life and can't be recycled SO WHAT IS GREEN see RDP Marine Australia THATS Green technology.
<3<3
I just want this so that I can finally get rid of the f* input lag of my expensive 360hz monitor 😡😡😡
