Power through the roof! New technology in wind energy has arrived. www.vortexwindfunnel.com

150+ Fox News Bias videos at www.youtube.com Fox News reporter Laura Ingle’s story about a New Jersey power company’s installation of 200000 solar panels on utility polls heavily concentrated on the views of critics, even talking to local critics while ignoring twice as many local residents gathered who supported solar panels, to falsely frame the issue as the people vs the power company and state mandates, as I show in this video. The clips I show of Laura Ingle, the residents of Dumont, NJ, and Paul Rosengren of Public Service Electric and Gas Company (PSE&G) come from a longer segment of Fox News’ June 8, 2011, broadcast of “Happening Now” which is available online at bit.ly The image I use of my previous video titled “Fox News Hates Trains?” comes from the YouTube video player page at www.youtube.com The image I use of the PSE&G’s FAQs on solar panels comes from bit.ly

Some homeowners are installing wind turbines in their backyards. These windmills are connected to the grid, and deliver renewable, green energy to the owner’s home. MarketWatch’s Stacey Delo talks with San Francisco homeowner Robin Wilson about putting in a wind turbine in an urban area. Video originally aired October 8, 2008.

For the Far Niente Winery located in California’s Napa Valley, an acre of land is more valuable than gold, so finding space for solar panels is tough — and costly. The solution? To float the panels on their irrigation pond, using new photovoltaic technology. “Floating solar”, backers say, could be a boon for farming and a range of other industries. Duration: 02:24

greenpowerscience.com This is a good option for anyone wanting to experiment with DIY solar panels but do not want to use hot solder. This works good if you have a good clean connection and you are willing to sacrifice about 5% of the solar cells over all watt output. You can actually make smaller panels this way increasing the wattage per square meter and saving on glass dimensions. This option works perfectly for joining together broken cells and making artistic designs with solar scraps that really produce power. This option is also perfect for solar model builders as this makes the panel one semi-rigid piece.

Chrysler has released its first sustainability report. The paper establishes initial goals and commitments for products, the environment, and stakeholders. The report was developed using the Global Reporting Initiative’s G3 Framework, and achieved a GRI Application Level A rating. Campbell Soup is adding solar energy power to its Sacramento plant. The 2.3 megawatt generation system will be built by American Capital Energy, which will maintain the system, and Campbell will buy the energy it produces. The solar power will contribute about 10 percent of the energy that the plant uses annually. For more information on these and other stories, go to thecsrminute.com

New research shows that Germany will become the world leader in offshore generated wind power as early as 2015. Enventi, a UK consultancy company, reports that German projects have ordered 2000 kilometers of wind farm-related, submarine power cables. Germany has plans for the installation of an integrated High-voltage Direct-Current—HVDC— network that will allow clusters of offshore of wind farms to be developed in northwest Europe. A group of global organizations has launched a practical guide to help companies maintain operational security while respecting human rights. The Implementation Guidance Tools are targeted especially at companies operating in geographical areas of conflict and weak governance, and address such issues as stakeholder engagement and risk assessment. The Tools are an outgrowth of the Voluntary Principles on Security and Human Rights, a program developed in 2000 by governments, companies in the extractive and energy sector, and NGOs. The group of sponsors includes the International Council on Mining and Metals, the International Finance Corporation, and the Global Oil and Gas Industry Association for Environmental and Social Issues, with support from the International Committee of the Red Cross.

Visit for FREE Info! www.napower.com American Wind is a Renewable Energy Certificate (REC) for American-made, wind electricity. A REC is a certificate that allows electricity customers to buy renewable electricity as an add on to their traditional utility service. It does not change a customer’s electricity service or their provider – it transforms their electricity use into a cleaner, safer, American made source by supporting wind power facilities. American Wind Certificates are now available in all 50 states as a monthly subscription for .50. Please send me your questions and learn more about the American Wind product and opportunity by emailing me at texasboi25@yahoo.com. American Wind is available to individuals and organizations nationwide!
