Offshore Wind Farm Locations Found Via Satellite
Using a NASA satellite that indirectly measures stresses on the ocean’s surface, researchers highlight areas of the ocean that have a high amount of wind energy that could be harnessed using floating wind farms.
Argentina Will Produce Massive Wind Power Turbines
Argentina will produce massive wind power turbines. This country of South America is using some of the biggest generators with de Eolis-15, that has 1,5 megawatts of power and almost 80 meters tall.
Schwarzenegger Slams Bush for Not Believing Global Warming
In an interview this morning with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos, Schwarzenegger laments that the Bush administration “did not believe in global warming.” He adds that even if officials had done something on Friday, he would have thought it “bogus anyway…because you don’t really have an effect by doing something six months before you leave office“
Geothermal Energy Will Help Power Anaheim, CA within 1 year
After six years of research, Raser Technologies will deliver geothermal energy to the city of Anaheim, California. The geothermal generator, which is located in Beaver County, Utah, will produce 10 megawatts of energy (enough to power 9,000 homes). It should be completed in about 12 months.
Honolulu to Air Condition Buildings with Seawater
A new green project called Honolulu Seawater Air Conditioning (HSWAC) proposes to cool down buildings with seawater, rather than fossil fuel-based air conditioning units, and it is getting some serious green to back it.
