Iceland and geothermal energy

Alternative Energy No Comments »

Iceland has harnessed the potential of geothermal energy, heating 90% of its houses and producing 30% of its electricity with geothermal. Geothermal energy is very important in Iceland that relies 100% on renewables for both electricity and house heating. The cascading use of geothermal was also pioneered in Iceland and has created new industries in Iceland through the circular economy mindset of making the most of each resource. Icelandic expertise in geothermal is also a valuable export product.

Efficiency – A Level Physics

Efficiency - A Level Physics

This video introduces and explains efficiency for A Level Physics.

The efficiency (η) of an object, device or machine is the ratio between the useful energy out and the total energy in or the ratio between the useful power out and the total power in. The efficiency equation is: efficiency = useful energy out/total energy in = useful power out/total power in.

Thanks for watching,

Lewis

This video is recommended for anyone studying A Level Physics in the following exam boards:

Ronald Stein is a Pulitzer Prize-nominated author, internationally-published columnist, energy consultant, engineer, and policy advisor for the Heartland Institute. His books include “Clean Energy Exploitations,” “Just Green Electricity,” and “Energy Made Easy.” He talks to Larry Elder about how people in developing countries are being exploited for the raw materials to make “green energy” products, and they also discuss many of the other shortcomings of the green energy movement.

Are wind farms real?

Are wind farms just another big scam, like man-made global warming?

Energy Transfer and Efficiency | GCSE Physics | Doodle Science

Renewable Energy No Comments »

Follow me!: https://twitter.com/DoodleSci

Doodle Science teaches you high school physics in a less boring way in almost no time!

Script:
Different types of energy can be transferred from one type to another. You can see that a car engine transfers chemical energy, which is stored in the fuel, into kinetic energy in the engine and wheels so it can get you from A to B. In a lamp the electrical input is converted into light energy. However not all the energy put in is turned into useful energy, some of it is turned into energy we don’t need such as heat.

Sankey diagrams summarise all the energy transfers taking place in a process. The thicker the arrow, the greater the amount of energy involved. This Sankey diagram for an electric lamp shows that most of the electrical energy is transferred as heat rather than light. This means it’s very inefficient. We can calculate efficiency using this simple formula, useful energy, in this case 10J divided by the total energy input, which is 100J, which gives us an efficiency of 0.1 or 10% if you times it by 100.

Aeromine Rooftop Wind. Static. Silent. 50% more power than Solar PV. What's not to like?

Alternative Energy No Comments »

Rooftop wind power has been a goal for micro power generators around the world for many years now. There’s no shortage of design ideas, but now there’s a new kid on the block that has no visible moving parts, makes no noise, and generates 50% more power than standard solar PV panels. So how do they do that?
