Energy To Carbon Dioxide Converter From National Energy Foundation:
new link -- The Home Energy Saver is designed to help you identify the best ways
to save energy in your home, and find the resources to make the savings happen.
The Home Energy Saver asks for a detailed description of your home, and then
quickly computes energy use on-line. Results are provided in dollars,
kilowatt-hours and CO2 emissions for your house and the most energy efficient
house. By changing one or more features, you can estimate how much energy and
money you can save and how much pollution you can prevent by improving your
home's energy efficiency. In addition, the Home Energy Saver's "Making it
Happen" and Energy Librarian" modules connect users to an expanding array of
"how-to" information resources throughout the Internet. |

How Much Does Your Vehicle Pollute? : new link -- Determines your
auto's carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide, and nitrogen oxide emissions. Will
calculate values specific to your mileage, or typical for the year and make of
your auto. Includes additional information explaining the significance of the
result and what can be done to lower emissions. |

Lmno Engineering : new link -- Have calculators for fluid flow and
formula information, good for hydro calculations or water pumping applications
(things like friction loss through pipes, etc.). |

National Climatic Data Center Wind Speed Data: new link -- Knowing
where a high wind resource may exist is valuable to a wind energy project
developer or potential wind energy user because it allows them to choose a
general area of estimated high wind for more detailed examination. NREL
identifies and gathers data for wind resource maps of the United States and
foreign countries. These maps help developers or users find areas worthy of
detailed wind resource monitoring. |
