The Race to Build the Most Efficient Solar Home | Nightly Business Report | Planet Forward | PBS
For more information visit: www.pbs.org and www.pbs.org PBS Airdate: Thursday, July 21, 2011 Peek inside a solar house by Middlebury College team for competition in Solar Decathlon, sponsored by the US Dept of Energy. Their design idea for solar AC has market promise and has been filed for patent. SUSIE GHARIB: Creating cost-effective, energy efficient homes. It`sa tall order, especially when you up the ante and say those houses have to be attractive. Well, college students will compete to build them this fall. Tonight, we continue our series, “Planet Forward,” it`sa partnership with The George Washington University Social Media Project, using your ideas to power our future. Frank Sesno takes us behind the scenes on the race to build the best solar home. FRANK SESNO, NIGHTLY BUSINESS REPORT CORRESPONDENT: When you hear the term “decathlon,” you probably think of this. SESNO: But every two years, teams with different sorts of decathletes from all around the world gather in Washington, DC Meet the team from Middlebury College in Vermont. They`ve been submitting videos to “Planet Forward” in the run-up to the Solar Decathlon this September. The US Department of Energy sponsors the contest, 20 college teams have to design, build, and operate solar-powered houses. UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: We just raised the last section of the south wall. SESNO: The house, a super-efficient 1000 square feet, reminiscent of a New England farmhouse, it`s insulated with spray-blown cellulose which is …

Chevron Tests Solar Technologies
The aim of Project Brightfield, in Bakersfield, Calif., is to find out how well next-generation solar technologies perform over three years. Chevron installed a field of solar panels on a site that was once a refinery. The project will test the effectiveness and durability of solar technologies side-by-side over time. But the project has other benefits because we’re reusing a former industrial site, and we’re producing usable power from the sun’s rays.

SOLAR ACTIVITY UPDATE: Trio of C-Class Flares/Approaching AR (Feb 12th, 2012).
Analysis of Solar Active Regions and Activity from 10/2100Z to 11/2100Z: Solar activity was low due to a trio of C7 x-ray events. Regions 1416 (S19W02) and 1417 (N16E44) each produced C7 events at 10/2352Z and 11/1854Z respectively. The third C7 event was observed at 11/1004Z from behind the east limb near N25. The activity behind the NE limb portends the return of old Region 1402 (N26, L=218). Region 1416 continued its growth phase, both in area and spot count, and maintained a beta-gamma magnetic configuration. At about 10/1900Z, a 27 degree long segmented filament erupted in the NE quadrant of the disk. The ENE to WSW oriented filament was centered at N29E14. An associated CME was observed lifting of the NE limb, first visible in SOHO LASCO C2 imagery at 10/2012Z. www.linktospace.com

STEAM ENGINE 12KW GENERATOR Solar Mirror Array Death Ray
www.greenpowerscience.com This is the first video from our “Viewers Video” segment where we showcase GreenPowerScience inspired work or other work that offers great ideas in the Green Energy Field. Joe Carruth built this by himself and this is the third prototype of his design. The unit weighs 1.5 tons and is 12.5 ft x 14.5 ft of active collection area. He currently manually tracks the sun for testing and hopes to get some funding to bring this project to a self contained version that can be available for Alternative Power production.
