Alternative Energy

[Transat 5]

Interesting QT,

Seems an unneccesary complication though. Converting natural gas to hydrogen.

I cant quite understand why we dont have vehicles which will run on gasoline or gas.
The Dutch have been running vehicles converted to do this for years now.

I am still trying to find out more about the Nevada Solar Project.

Seems to me its talking about powering a steam turbine with solar energy.
Interesting.

I wonder too if solar could be used to power a Stirling engine?

The reference to 'thin film' solar panels is interesting too.
They claim to have a first, but Iowa Thin Film has been 'printing' these panels for some time. They are marketing a portable roll up panel in varying sizes. (I have not been able to find out if they are a listed or private company.

They are the ones proposed to help power GTE's Strat.

Do you know off any company involved with utilizing the Stirling engine BTW ?
