Wind Power
Wind power has been around for a very long and
we are now finally starting to realize its
potential as a great energy saver.
Most of the things that you can do with Wind Power
to save Energy, also apply to Solar Power.
One great advantage that Wind Power has over Solar Power
is that it works best in bad weather.
The first thing that we need to do is stop thinking
in line with the voltage of our power grid (power companies)
110 volt, 220 volt and 440 volt and start thinking voltage dealing with
alternative energy, 12 volt, 24 volt and 48 volts, then we can light
a light or run a motor right from a new solar and/or wind generator.
Wind Power
With wind power as with solar panels, you can
pump your well water into your home filtration system.
When there is no wind, a relay drops in
and your solar panel battery takes over with
its solar pump motor or alternator.
Some of this may seem repetitive, because many alternative
energy products can do the same job and this is one of those times.
Some people cannot and some people will not switch to
newer energy equipment however, for a variety of reasons.
So, we must speak with the only voice that they will listen to, our vote.
Beginning this election, let’s vote only the people into
office who will be 100% for Alternative Energy!

Wind Generator
A wind generator, like a solar panel, generates electricity
to be sent down to an electric water heater,
heating unit or heating A-coil to heat your home.
Again, remember that we are now
thinking low voltage, not electric companies.
We also need to remember that we can use solar
and wind to light lights in our home with 12 or 24 volts
right from our panels and/or generators.
We have been doing this in our campers, boats
and motor homes for many years.
As for microwaves, T.V.'s, stoves, washers,
dryers and fans, 12 volts or 24 volts.
I can remember back in the 70's,
working on 12 and 24 volt refrigerators,
so why not now and air and heat pumps too?
