Using SuperCapacitors for Energy Storage
|
Supercapacitors (also known as ultracapacitors) are DC energy sources and must be interfaced to the electric grid with a static power conditioner, providing 60-Hz output. A supercapacitor provides power during short duration interruptions and voltage sags. By combining a supercapacitor with a battery-based uninterruptible power supply system, the life of the batteries can be extended. The batteries provide power only during the longer interruptions, reducing the cycling duty on the battery. Small supercapacitors are commercially available to extend battery life in electronic equipment, but large supercapacitors are still in development, but may soon become a viable component of the energy storage field. source |

Self-Sufficient Living
|
What does it mean to be self-sufficient? For some the simple answer is taking care of ones self. For others, it is more extreme. They want to live without the help of others. The purpose of this section is as a resource for those who desire to live in between these two ideas. I have often thought that I would like to turn back time and find some acreage where I could grow my own food. Don’t know that I would raise cows, chickens or pigs. Just having a garden with fresh organic vegetables could be wonderful. It was just a few generations ago that our grandmothers or great-grandmothers made quilts to keep warm, sewed clothes, made jams & jellies, made soap and made those homemade berry pies. |

| Unlimited Energy Solar Solutions From: cleanenergyworks Unlimited Energy is the largest, locally owned solar contractor in the Central San Joaquin Valley. We have been in business in Fresno since 1984 and have designed and installed some of the largest PV projects in the State of California. With over 2.75 million watts installed spanning over 400 installations, we’ve earned the right to be called the authority on solar. For more information:

| Inflatable Solar Collectors From: PeakPixels CoolEarthSolar.com has a patented idea for inflatable solar collectors that are much cheaper than polished mirrors to concentrate sunlight onto Photovoltaic chips. Their design is 400x cheaper than polished aluminum mirrors, will withstand 130 mph winds, lasts a year, repairs with tape, takes 15 minutes to change out, costs $2 per balloon, or 18 cents per watt, compared to $5 per watt for conventional installations, and has a minimal effect on the ground underneath the array!
