Solar Power The sun

The Solar Today

The image above is not fiction but reality. It 's the solar power mirrors Solucar PS10 . It 's a project carried out in Spain in 2006 thanks to one of the greatest minds in Italian, Carlo Rubbia. The strange thing is that it could have been made in Italy but then our government is not incorporated and Rubbia in 2005 in spain support.

This technology (already used by Archimedes ) allow large concentrations of energy distributed over the day thanks to the accumulation of thermal energy and then allow the plant to use on an ongoing basis, just like any method of production.

Solar Power thermal energy, heat is indirectly used in thermodynamic cycles through which electricity is produced by the grid. The technology is based on the use of simple "parabolic mirror" for the concentration of direct radiation, in order to efficiently convert solar energy into high temperature heat. To overcome the limits of solar variability due to day / night system, the solar energy is stored in the form of heat through the use of molten salt at a temperature of 550 ° C (new mix of salts that can retain heat for a long). The heat storage capacity will be such as to deliver power in a completely independent of the presence of solar radiation. This new technology still under development, if developed on a commercial scale may be a new alternative for the production of electricity at a cost competitive and tend to zero emissions.

Last year, Italy has also decided to Priolo and invests € 40 million in solar thermal power plant of 5 that you develop a megawatt amount of energy to meet the annual needs of 4,500 families with a saving of about 2,400 tons of oil equivalent a year, with a cut emissions of carbon dioxide to about 7,300 tons.

But we are still far below the European average investment. We call ourselves the land of sun , and is also easily understand why, but in Italy is hardly 40MW of installed capacity of 1600 MW against even the cold and rainy Germany.

They, in fact, since 2006 they realized that thanks to this innovative technology could hope for a possible energy self-sufficiency and praise of our own research Carlo Rubbia, recalling that Italy would have missed out in Spain.

But maybe it's just the beginning and something is moving in our beautiful country. In the south are starting new projects that perhaps turned around at least the face of our sun, among the hottest in Europe.

The government earlier this year, is launching a significant incentive for this "new" type of source and the southern regions is the availability for their installation. So here is a window on 10 projects like those of Priolo for a total of 500MW . However, so far only deals, but no dates or sites identified. Who knows if they become reality?

Is It Normal For Warts To Turn Black?

Our most 'great resource

The largest and most enduring sources of universal energy. Certainly the only real possible way to energy independence overall.

seems almost absurd that the solution to our energy problems could be within reach of everyone! Rich and poor, powerful and humble. Available daily. The energy source more "democratic" exists. The sun. That 'the lives of all, there has always been and always will be. As the sun was born and the life 'from the sun that everything continues to evolve. A perfect cycle that feeds during the day and off at night.

Ed and 'solar derived almost all other forms of usable energy on Earth.

The sun irradiates the earth and warms the atmosphere by moving air masses, thus giving rise to winds (wind) and rain (water), is to grow the plants (biomass), and so the animals (mechanical energy ) who died, over the millennia, become hydrocarbons (thermal).

He was adored by all the most ancient populations. Greeks and Romans (Apollo), Egyptians (Ra), the Aztecs (Nanauatzin) from the African Ashanti (Nyame), the Celts (Grann), from the Etruscans (Cautha) and the Hindu (Vishnu).

not needed then science and technology today is to understand that the most important resource for life on earth.

But we continue to run after the oil. Symbol of our prosperity today. Great accelerator that carries us from the 800 at full speed toward progress, although perhaps today, we begin to doubt that "progress" is the right word.

In these 200 years mankind has come a long way, and at an incredible rate if the measured on 40,000 years of human history "Sapiens Sapiens." In less than 200 years we have done 95% of all discoveries of all time, and our average life expectancy has risen from 35 years in 1800 to 70 years today.

But all this at an incredible cost. The most serious cost to be paid. What a world that may soon turn against them. It is starting to no longer stand.

I just thought at the beginning of the 900 on the ground were less than a billion people. We are now almost seven and by 2015 we could reach ten. A high number of folks who live with the lifestyle of today's eco-aggressive devastate the ecosystem in a few years. We think then to China, and India, whose economies still run almost entirely by coal.

So what are we waiting for? Why miss the opportunity now, we're "still" standing up, change our way of life and respect the world around us still fall into the perfect chain of the ecosystem from which we came out a few decades ago?

And it is that you must restart from the sun, which at this time there has never abandoned. That has never changed and that always takes us by the hand clear.

The strain energy we would do today to change our productivity is still relatively low. Solar thermal and photovoltaic as well as other sources, are still "cheap", because even on oil products.

One day, however, the total energy production might not meet demand and more production then prices would go up. We want to take the risk that you're wrong?

thought today would be enough solar panels to fill 40% of the roofs of houses and factories in Italy to cover the entire Italian energy needs.

Given that PV has a payback in 10 years or so (out of 30 panels guarantee), if today we decided to fully invest in solar, we would have a total return in 4 years and maintenance of every 90.

But that's another story. Revolutions are never done any day now ...
