Energy Innovations Across The Globe - 01.08.2012
Energy solutions could change the way we live - from one city's bold smart grid experiment, to radical home-building redesigns, and cutting-edge technology that could surround us in solar power no matter where we live. This week energyNOW! looks at energy innovations across the globe.
The Pecan Street Project
The smart grid conjures up images of controlling home energy use with iPhones and utilities communicating with customers in real time like never before. But across most of the country, the smart grid is more fantasy than reality - except in the Lone Star State.

Electric vehicles are hitting the streets in larger numbers, led by models like the Nissan Leaf and Chevrolet Volt. By one estimate, there could be more than 600,000 EVs on U.S. roads by 2014, but that's a speck in the rear-view mirror compared to the roughly 140 million passenger cars Americans already drive. This week, energyNOW! explores the state of electric vehicles in America today: are t...

Shale Oil - The Rush for Black Gold - 11.20.2011
Просмотров 200 тыс.12 лет назад
One of America's biggest energy challenges is foreign oil dependency. The U.S. imports about half the oil it uses, putting the nation's energy security at risk and costing hundreds of billions of dollars per year. New drilling innovations are unlocking vast new reserves and boosting local economies. But is the new drilling also forcing a tough choice between oil and water in drought-stricken Te...
The Midwest's Wind Power Hub
Просмотров 97912 лет назад
The Department of Energy says the potential for wind power is greatest in middle America, where strong, steady breezes blow across the prairie. But the wind farms built there often have to send their electricity across several states to find the homes and businesses that need it. So how can energy from small-town wind turbines reach big city power sockets? Correspondent Lee Patrick Sullivan goe...
energyTHEN: Early Views on Wind Power

Neither the problems with wind power, nor efforts to solve them, are new. This week's energyTHEN! takes us to 1980 and a Department of Energy film on the pioneering work being done in the field of wind energy.
The Hot Zone: The Sanya Skypump
Просмотров 3,6 тыс.12 лет назад
This week in the energyNOW! Hot Zone: The Sanya Skypump, developed by Urban Green Energy and General Electric, will allow electric vehicle drivers to power up using solar and wind power. When it's not being used to charge EVs, the makers say it can send electricity to the grid.
Capturing The Wind
Просмотров 1,8 тыс.12 лет назад
The biggest challenge facing wind energy is intermittency. Wind often blows strongest when power demand is lowest, and weakest when electricity is needed the most. Because today's power grid needs electricity to be consumed the moment it's generated, that means wind turbines send electricity to the grid half as often as an average coal plant. But what if wind farms could store the power that is...

Can Geoengineering Combat Climate Change?
This is the number one reason why UFOs and aliens are so covered up, particularly electricity, no not fossilized electricity like oil, Cole, gas or even green energy like solar wind nuclear.. I'm talking zero point Energy. That's why they don't come out and talk about UFOs and aliens because if they did then scientists would ask well how did they get here?" ( it's impossible nothing can travel faster than the speed of light and everything involving our basic understanding of modern-day physics) it would unleash a massive explosion on the science community ushering in a whole new world of greatness.. But that would spark a massive controversy in which the multi hundred trillion dollar fossil fuel industry doesn't want to admit. It would let the cat out of bag then it will be a real American Revolution claiming Independence not from Britain, but from the ultimate slave masters, which is the Central Banking military industrial complex Energy System that is basically controlling our entire existence. Whoever controls the world's energy controls the world and that is why UFOs and aliens are so covered up it's not about them it's about keeping control over us and putting a meter on your car and on your house and basically your entire life when in reality there's an abundance of free energy all around us it's all about tapping into that and that is the ultimate government cover-up in which it can cure most of Mankind's problems like disease sickness illness food and water. Starting to feel sick yet? Well it gets worse.. Gets 1000 likes for part 2.
Now evs are going to be super cheap since calis working on charging 30 cents per mile for evs..they push evs so much now there getting ready to screw everyone so Hard omg 30 cents per miles insane
Me
He is the most diabolical malthusian ive ever heard.. a truly sick man
This is the greatest explanation anybody has ever given, ever.
My favorite is the little guy electricity
why this nigga arms so long 🙅♂😡
nice
I like this video. I am inspired already.
He never answered the question on how many people does it take to turn on a light 🤣
i will thank you for my B in science
US needs to keep and store its supply of protonated deuterium. Once refined, It can easily be made to release free protons, which will eventually be used as an energy source and be worth their weight in gold, and assist us in long space flight. There is a danger to releasing free protons, and they must be stored in chemical batteries, or in another way. The universe only supplied us with so much free protons, and if they are let to sink to the Earth's center, it will cause geologic instability and be very hard to get them back. If sold, this material will be used by our enemies in various ways and be wasted away.
8 years later, the verdict is in. Not economic viable. The SMB concept based on solid fuel is decisively dead. All the investors pulled out.
im here for geology, what about yall?
Huh that's very convenient
funny and good for learning
really old yk
Back then, I really thought nuclear energy worked differently. Turns out it was just a complicated way of using uranium to heat up water and generate steam for the turbines of the generator.
Thank you so much you rescue my life❤
Great explenation
I've worked in the power inductry for 20+ years. This is the best "how it works" video I've seen. Consider updating the the stats in this to reflect the increase in renewable resources as part of the U.S. energy mix.
Enjoying this video as it is very engaging with the audience and keeping us in the loop till the end of the video.
Amazing to know that we’re actually STILL using the steam engine for EVERYTHING!
I watched Alice borderland and wondered if I was going to be the only one alive once. So I decided to get a plan😂
الله هو الخلاق العليم وليست الطبيعة. آمنت بالله المنعم.
Great video!
Tuck in your shirt!
Great introduction video. I learned that its a combination of source that generate the electricity. I thought it was funny a dinosaur was driving.
uwu
And when the world needed him most....he vanished.
And it only harmed (1) animated sheep in its production of this tutorial.
This is some quality OG RUclips content
I love the old school animation 😍
This is one of the best electricity videos I’ve seen!!!
OK, it's 101, but that's a good time to point out you need to throw heat away to run a steam turbine, also video gives the impression that the generator is efficient because water is recycled, whereas efficiency has a well defined meaning in engineering, and reusing water isn't it !
i ended up here at 3:52 AM for some reason, but hey, you learn something every day 😂
So the energy that's not being used in the sockets go where?... do they get grounded? Say nothings on, no ones home
This whole time i thought steam was something obsolete only to realize that we're still using the technology that they used to power the trains in the 1800s
Amazing video
*Mario sounds*
The last line, no brainer, lmao🤣
Bro why did you stop uploading videos 😢
Love this video! Like if you agree!❤😊
Helpful and very easy to understand. Thank you
idk how it works because the number 1 law of reality is nothing can be created nor destroyed
so how does copper not go null from being used so much
cool
Texas is so big they have their own grid.
I'm an Environmental Science student and this was very helpful!
When water is boiled and changes form liquid to gas it expands I think 1200-1400 times from it’s original volume. That’s some serious torque if captured correctly. No wonder we haven’t figured out a better way yet.
One day I want endless electricity. No more bills fuck those bills.
