Alternative Environmental Friendly Energy sources

With the ever upward spiraling of energy costs for transport, consumable production, and home heating, the time now to consider the global utilization of previously researched renewable energy sources is of paramount importance to the maintenance of our standard of living.

Oil at $10 a barrel not so long ago, the use of renewable energy sources was not considered economical, however oil at $140 a barrel presents us with an unparalleled opportunity to expand into commercial utilization of alternative renewable energy production methods long known about.

Discussion on proposed electricity generating projects using renewable biomass product has created an increased interest in the consideration of other energy production methods.

The long raging debate on the use of wind farms and their siting, has clouded a debate which when commercialised will provide a dependable source  of transportation fuel which does not rely on imported high price carbon based products. That fuel is Hydrogen produced by the electrolysis of water using a renewable electricity source. Hydrogen reverts to water vapour on combustion

Vehicle and air transport companies have been experimenting for many years how to use this fuel which does not pollute and lowers carbon footprint. Hydrogen production at wind farm sites is under serious consideration and actually producing albeit in as yet small quantities.

The use of biomass is a long researched technique practiced in many small but very rarely publicized sites of animal farms. Using the natural degradation of animal rearing by product, in thermal digestion plant the methane generated is used to generate on site required electricity.
