Solar Projects That Amaze

Saturday 4 January 2014

By Hedrick Lepsch


The sun is amazing and is the source of energy that makes life on this planet possible. It heats up your home, grows your food, boost your health, and if you have Helios 255 Watt solar panels on your roof it can even power your fridge. However, the sun can also be dangerous and cause you serious harm.

As we think about conserving energy and using energy responsibly for the future, it is important to keep the value and sustainability of solar energy in mind. Solar panels may seem overly expensive at first glance, but over time they have the potential to save your household a great deal of money, and help you to sustain yourself for the future.

Solar Plant One of the first solar energy projects that inspires awe through its simple grandeur and massive scale is that project undertaken by the creators, developers, and laborers of the Ivanpah solar farm in the vast expanse of North Americas Mojave Desert.

Recognizable by most through its appearance in the Hollywood movie "Sahara" the solar plant is much larger than it appears on screen (as only one section of the entire plant was displayed in the film) and boasts the capability of producing 377 megawatts of power, much more than a simple Phonosolar 300 watt panel.

Sun poisoning will result in sever skin burnings, headache, fluid loss and blisters. The fluid loss ca cause dehydration and increase your risk of infection. What to Do If you have these symptoms get out of the sun for starters. And drink plenty of fluid, water is preferable; avoid caffeine, sodas, and sports drinks.

Scientists are currently working on the creation of new panels that have the capability to convert all light energy from the sun to other forms of energy. And by starting early and installing solar panels now, you will be able to increase the usefulness of your panels for the future.

Solar Bicycles Sanyo has recently introduced its new solar powered bicycle parking lots in its native japan. Not just structures with solar powered lighting, although they are that too, the two bike lots actually recharge and power hybrid solar energy bicycles for use in the community, not only making clean energy available to commuters but also in a clean form of transportation.

Remember also that in some areas you can sell your excess energy to other energy companies, and use other sources of energy when the light is insufficient to power your home.

Place packs of ice near their groin, armpits, neck and back as these areas are rich with blood vessels. With all of this being said the sun still remains a wonderful thing and it is the principal reason why we are able to survive on the planet.

Treat it with respect and enjoy the sun responsibly. Hopefully you never fall prey to the more viscous repercussions of excessive sun exposure and if you find yourself with mild sunburn let that be a lesson to you.
