solar power facts Frequently Asked Questions
help with my renewable energy poster?
I'm making a renewable energy poster, and I want to work on it and finish it this weekend. I already have an idea of how to draw it out, and what goes where, but I would like some help with these areas:
- a simple definition of Clean/Renewable Energy
- why using that type of energy is good
- three facts on wind power, solar power and bio fuel power.
Also, what do you think of my slogan; "Cleaner Energy for a Cleaner World"?
Please go all out in your answers. I've done a lot of research into the area, but I can't seem to condense everything so that it can go onto a poster and not be too overwhelming for the reader...especially since I found out the posters are going to be made into a calendar for 2011. Thanks! 
Clean energy - energy whose production doesn't contribute to pollution or global warming
Renewable energy - energy derived from sources which can be fully replenished indefinitely (for the life of our planet) using environmentally sustainable processes
Why good? - because it provides a sustainable pathway to the future
Wind power - intermittent, highly variable, easily harnessed using high turbines, fully renewable and sustainable, "clean"
Solar power - 50% maximum availability, highly variable, easily harnessed using photovoltaic or thermal collectors, fully renewable and sustainable, "clean"
Bio fuel power - partially renewable but not fully sustainable (may produce net CO2 emissions, may compete with food production), not "clean"
Slogan: For a renewable energy poster, why not "Renewable Energy for a Sustainable World" ?
Tricycle on the road?
I want to buy or build a tricyle that is solar powered. I don't need to go very long distances, but without a car, it's difficult. I want a tricycle because I want to add one of those bike carseats for my 6 year old to ride with me and I thought it would be better balanced and safer if the seat was mounted in between the two back wheels instead of me trying to balance us two on these Georgia hills.
I want Solar power to give me a little kick on the road for at least a mile or two when I choose.
What do you think? Any tips, ideas, or facts to give me? Do you know how I would go about doing this without paying as much as a used car?
Serious answers only! Thanks in advance!
I chose solar to avoid high gas prices and decrease our family's dependence on gas. My hope is that my husband can even ride this to work sometimes to save money. We are on a very tight budget.
Honestly, solar power is probably only going to bog you down more than anything. You'll get very little help out of it, and it's going to add a lot of weight to it that you'll have to get moving. If anything I would get a small gasoline engine put in. About the same weight as Solar panels and batteries and electric motors, but more powerful and simpler. There's lots of bikes riding around with a little gasoline engine on them around here.
But that's just my opinion.
